Seems there was no shortcut for this other than a complete replacement of the keyboard. This created problems during startup – every startup was as if with the Shift key depressed, booting the computer into safe mode! While a key remap could solve this in the short run, it was not the ideal solution. On my MacBook Pro, one of the Shift key remained constantly depressed or activated, even when the key was not physically depressed. I could only suspect that it was due to the screen-wipe aerosol which I had used, and some droplets could have found their way through the chassis via the keyboard openings. And in case you’re wondering, no I did not spill water on it. Having said all that, my MacBook Pro recently failed on me, supposedly due to a moisture problem. “…the difficulty of this project is 4.5/5.0 and if you’re not into tinkering with electronics and microcomponents, this project is probably not going to be fun for you.”
