H key on Das randomly works

[Danny356]

I removed the H keycap on my das and it seems to works if I tap the switch very quickly or hard, but if I tap it normally it doesn't activate. How do I go about fixing this? perhaps some oil?

Your best option will be to desolder the switch and replace it.

It sounds like something has gone wrong with the leaf contact or the stem pieces that actuate the switch. You can try blasting some canned air inside the switch as a last-ditch-effort in case theres something like a piece of hair stuck in it.
