CAN'T separate the keyboard from the laptop. good thing I had aan extra keyboard!
Here's something that may be pertinent: after I pop individual keys that are sticking off there is no evidence of wine.

If you can remove the keyboard you can then clean it.

using water with vinegar then rinsing with just the distilled water
and letting it sit in the sun for a few hours to dry/going after it
with compressed air.

Follow these ideas AT YOUR OWN RISK.

- Take apart the notebook enough to remove the keyboard.
- Wash the keyboard in warm water.
- Dry the keyboard in the AZ sun for a day, maybe two.  Longer if not
in the sun.
- The keyboard must be completely dry before reconnecting.  Are you
sure it is dry?
- Re-install the keyboard and hope it now is clean and works.

Or, instead of all that, buy a replacement keyboard from eBay or a repair shop.
