I had this problem of keys `p`, `0`and `-_`not working temporarily on a regular basis (especially after every unsuspend), [described above](https://community.frame.work/t/solved-framework13-keyboard-has-intermittent-keys/33279/35). I just replaced my (FW13) keyboard with a new keyboard (cost 32€), and so far the issue seems to have disappeared completely. I replaced only the keyboard, not the whole input cover (so the cables etc. are unchanged). The replacement is described as Difficult in the [Framework guides](https://guides.frame.work/Guide/Keyboard+Replacement+Guide/83), but in fact I found it fairly easy (and I’m not particularly skilled in this kind of work), it is just that it takes a long time because there are a lot of small fasteners to screw and unscrew, around 50 in total. (I would count maybe one or two hours in total.)
