Hi all,

I've got a 13 inch Mid '10 MBP that I'm preparing to sell. I turned it on today and the keyboard seems to be behaving a tad erratically. When I push keys down, they sometimes appear on screen straight away, but very often you have to press a few and then they'll spill out in burts of around 6 letters.

A couple of days ago I took the battery out to access the trackpad, is it possible I knocked a ribbon cable for the keyboard that could cause an issue like this? Or are there any software fixes I could try? Doesn't seem like the job for an SMC reset.

Any help appreciated
