This article explains how to assemble a key on a keyboard of most Sony VAIO PCG-FRV, PCG-K, VGN-A and VGN-FS Series Laptop computer. Note: The color and clips may be different for your model but the process is the same
Important: Shut down your computer before replacing any key. Follow these steps to putting a keycap back on the keyboard: Check that none of the individual parts is broken. On the keycap, all of the snaps and hooks must be present and not bent or deformed in any way. (See Figure 1.) Reassemble the mechanism: The assembly should formed a "scissors" mechanic. Adjust the mechanics if they have come off the keyboard, or are not fully snapped into place . Make sure the pivots on the ends are present and not broken off or deformed. (See Figure 2.) Assembling the scissors into the metal plate: Start with the small inner scissor. Orient the inner scissor side at 45 degrees relative to the metal plate as shown in red arrow (notch bar face down). Slip the bar at the end of the inner scissor under the hook on the top metal plate where the red arrows are pointing to in Figure 3. Make sure it snaps securely in place. You may need to align the metal plate if it is bent. If the metal plate piece is broken off, then your keyboard is no longer good. Do the same for the larger outer scissor: It goes on the bottom (blue arrows) metal plate the same way. Press down from the top firmly so that the joint will snap onto the inter scissors.The last bar piece hooks right under thelarger scissor on the bottom end. Press firmly so it snaps in place and should look like Figure 4. Align and snap the key back into place: When the key is correctly aligned with an even gap all around (relative to the surrounding keys) press down with even, firm pressure in the middle of the key. It should snap into place and work correctly. _________________________________________________________________________________________________ This article explains how to assemble a key on a keyboard of most Sony VAIO PCG-GRT, VGN-FJ, VGN-SZ, VGN-CR, VGN-TX Series Laptop computer.

Important: Shut down your computer before replacing any keys. Follow these steps to putting a key back on the keyboard: Check that none of the individual parts is broken. On the keycap, all of the snaps and hooks must be present and not bent or deformed in any way. Reassemble the mechanism: Align the two clips next to each other exactly as pictured in Figure 1. Make sure there is no broken or bent part on each of the clips.
Figure 1 Assembling the Clips into Position: Start with the left side clip. Insert the top left notch of the clip into the grove position on the keyboard and apply pressure on the bottom left to pop it into place. You may need a small flat screw driver to aid you. Repeat the process for the right side clip. Once you are completed you should get something that looks like Figure 2. Try to get the clips to be evenly space so you are ready for the next step.

Important: Shut down your computer before replacing any keys. Follow these steps to putting a key back on the keyboard: Check that none of the individual parts is broken. On the keycap, all of the snaps and hooks must be present and not bent or deformed in any way. Reassemble the mechanism: You should already receive the scissors mechanics already assembled and ready to be inserted into place as shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1 Placing the Mechanics into Position: Start inserting the scissors mechanics hole assembly into the top notch groove(the two hooks sticking out in the first picture) as shown in Figure 1. The notch can be located at the bottom, top, left or right depending on the model . Then lock the other side of the hooks under the metal retainer.
