Tried fixig hp pavilion chiclet keyboard, incessantly types a key by itself

How to fix hp pavilion chiclet keyboard, incessantly types by itself a key, only few seconds idle

The key is n

This'd be only in some PC startup times, on some startups else it doesn't, like typing this now, but still it'd last only ~15 minutes or ~150 key stroke before being defected

Rather baffling, for sure in any condition, this N key itself doesn't function, hitting it won't register plain n into input buffer

These "n"s typed here is performed by way of remapped n key to another

- Clean out the the 'n' key if its possible, it may not be possible as this seems to be somewhat sealed membrane kb, you haven't posted the specific model though
- Probably not it but can try reseating and cleaning the ribbon connector for the keyboard
- Use an external keyboard
- or Buy a replacement keyboard for $20-30
