Keyboard issue with strange diagonal keys 6YHN & spacebar

I am facing issues with the keypad of my MacBook Air M2 in which it's pretty strange that the diagonal keys 6YHN and the space bar is not working. And the other interesting thing is that these keys would work only if you press them along with any other keys. For example, if you press them with the caps lock or the shift or any other keys, these key starts working. This is pretty strange and really frustrating from a 1.5 year old MacBook.

Apple should seriously consider this issues and call back devices that have these faulty issues.

If anyone knows the fix for this or if it's a software issue or if it's a hard issue, please let me know

Hi,

You'd better take your MacBook Air to your local retail AppleStore, Genius Bar or Apple Authorized Service Provider to be examined your MacBook Air keyboard.

I suppose it may be hardware related issue.
