Hey guys.

So my left, down and right arrow keys stopped working so after some head scratching, i decided to remove the switches and check if everything is in order...
Looks like there is a scratch under the switch of the left arrow key which I'm assuming is why the other keys stopped working too. I've attached a pic for reference
Is this fixable?

TIA

if that is a cut trace, should be easily fixable,

Where are you based? I could always solder it back for you if that is the case.

you might need to prod around with a multimeter to check things out though
 
I'm pretty sure that it is. I just don't have to tools or knowledge to fix it.

I'm based in CPT

Where about exactly, I'm in Northern suburbs. but I am sure we can make a plan
 
That looks like a cut trace!

Just use an end to end jump wire. Definitely fixable with a soldering iron and a mulitmeter.
