My first mechanical keyboard key chattering!

[Pavilions]

Hello,

I just received my Poker II Keyboard with Cherry MX brown switches and I was so happy with it until I found out the E letter is repeating while I click. I searched online trying to open the top cover of the switch but I couldn't do it it's like stuck really hard, I saw some videos that people said that you have to desolder it and open the whole switch to clean it but I don't know if it will help or not.

any bits of advice?

Desolderning and cleaning/changing a switch would work but since it's new just ask for replacement. You won't be able to open plate-mounted switch unless you have a plate that's designed to allow that.

The issue is that I have ordered this keyboard from a third party company which it costs a lot already. I can't send it for a replacement I have to fix it my self or order parts for it. I found brown switches at Mechanicalkeybaords.com but Idon't know if it's at the same quality. I'm thinking of ordering them and reinstall the switches to this keyboard at least only for the E letter. I tried to clean it but for some reason, I can't open the upper switch case I don't know why I think I have to desolder it so I can open it.

With the exception of some aftermarket plates you can't open an MX switch while it's mounted in the plate. The plates just don't allow you to open the switch. To remove the switch from the plate requires de-soldering the switch from the PCB.

In the event that your keyboard is in guarantee, at that point you can issue a RMA ask for and get a substitution yet it is a touch of tedious and it is likewise not ensured that the new keyboard won't face this chattering issue Greatpeople.me

Did you make sure that it is the latest firmware patch because I remember that my ducky one 2 mini had a similar key chattering issue that even opening and cleaning the switch didnt help but I found that they had released firmware to fix the chatter problem.
