Oil in Laptop

[Priya2202]

Hello! So basically, I spilled some oil onto my laptop keyboard n now most of the keys delay in working. Like they do work, but I gotta keep pressing them two-three times to make them work. Is there anything to fix this? Is there anyway I could clean up the liquid or something? Or are my keys permenantly damaged?

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I have a few troubleshooting steps we could try to fix the issue:  

1. Power down your laptop and unplug it from all power sources.
2. Turn your laptop upside-down and carefully tap it to remove any dust or other debris. ...
3. Use a can of compressed air to clear and clean the spaces between the keys. ...
4. Wipe down the keys with a slightly damp microfiber cloth.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
