I need to replace the keyboard on my HP Probook 430 G8 as the power button is broken. I cant find any videos for keyboard replacement - the HP video seems to cover everything else, except keyboard! Can anyone help

That is because the keybard is not a separate replaceable part. Here is what the service manual says on p. 50:

 

Keyboard with top cover
The top cover with keyboard remains after removing all other spare parts from the computer. In this section,
the ƭirst table provides the main spare part number for the top cover and keyboards. The second table
provides the country codes.

 

To translate, this means you have to get a new top cover with keyboard included, disassemble the laptop entirely, then rebuild it onto a new keyboard and top cover. So the procedure is the sum of all those other videos.

Top cover is part #2 on p. 17. Post back if you wish to discuss further.
