MacBook Pro keyboard A1707 2015 15" Keyboard Totally Dead

Hi All I've got a weird one, unlike the sticky key problem with 2017 MacBook Pro's my Macbook's decided to go all out and the keyboard is totally unresponsive. on top of that every time I boot it up the fan runs like mad for ages then settles down, the other weird thing is the touch bar is still lighting up and responds perfectly well.


I've tried the usual things like re-setting the PRAM, letting it run completely out of juce and so on however nothing seems to work.


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When you press the keyboard, does it feel as if something if wrong?

try booting to safe mode -oops I forgot your keyboard wasn’t working...

plug in an external keyboard that you probably have in the storage and when booting up quickly press and hold the shift key until your mac boots up.


if not, could be a hardware problem, go to the nearest Apple Authorised Service Provider for help.
