Hi Martin It's quite easy to pop the keys off and check underneath, if you watch a video on YouTube you'll see. Essentially you insert a small flat blade screwdriver under the side edge of the key but between the key and the scissor hinge. Twist the screwdriver to pop the top edge off the hinge first, then
Getting them back on is quite simple too, just slide the bottom edge downwards onto the 'teeth' of the scissor hinge then push the top edge down to clip back in.
