Aspire A75-42G-Keys 1 and 3 not working on laptop keyboard, pressing together triggers pause/resume

MelihK0

The keys 1 and 3 on the keyboard (not the numpad) does not work. Every other key works perfectly fine. HOWEVER, when I press 1, 2 and 3 all at the same time, it acts as the pause/resume button. Lights under the keyboard don't get turned on when I press neither 1 or 3.

Sounds like you have a hardware issue with your keyboard, try an external USB keyboard to see if the problem repeats, if not you can bring the laptop to an Acer accredited PC repair shop near you to check the keyboard and KB cable. A new keyboard is not expensive ($25 w/o backlit):
