    Take it to the shop. Its way beyond your capabilities and all you could possibly do is make matters worse.

    If you can't resolve it by cleaning the keyboard better, then you'll at least need to replace the keyboard.

    Depending on how and where you use your computer, a usb keyboard might be a solution.

    The same thing happened to me with the D.S. I used to own. I put it near something hot trying to evaporate any leftover liquid then it fixed itself.
