Recommended tools for some keys
Optional but handy: the spudger lifts the key without scratching or bending the mechanism, and the thin blade of the flat screwdriver unhooks the plastic hinge and helps clip it back in.

On these keyboards, this genuine MX Keys key takes the place of the official one: same scissor mechanism and mounting, with a legend and finish that may differ slightly.
Where is the Num Lock key and what does it do?
On a full-size Logitech MX Keys, the Num Lock key, marked with a padlock bearing a “1”, sits at the top left of the keypad, above the 7. Each press switches the keypad between numbers and navigation (arrows, Home, End, Page Up and Down). The keyboard has no Num Lock light: Logi Options+ can show its status on screen.
About the Num Lock replacement key
An incomplete keypad slows down every figure you type: this Num Lock key for the MX Keys, shipped with its hinge, replaces the missing one. The Num Lock key is a genuine Logitech part, pre-owned, taken from a dismantled keyboard; the rubber dome is not supplied, as the one on your keyboard stays in place.
Compatibility
This Num Lock keycap fits the full-size MX Keys (MX Keys, MX Keys S and MX Keys for Mac), the only ones with a numeric keypad: the MX Keys Mini has none, so there is no place for it there. The legend is that of the QWERTY (US) layout.
The Num Lock key: position, size and wear
Only the full-size MX Keys has a numeric keypad; its keys take bursts of one-handed presses whenever figures are keyed in. With no metal wire under a one-unit cap, the Num Lock key rests entirely on its scissor hinge. A press at an angle, a fingernail slipped underneath or a vigorous clean is enough to tear one of its clips.
How to install it
Allow under a minute to refit the Num Lock key, bare-handed or with a plastic spudger: free the old hinge if it is broken, clip the new one in the same orientation, then press straight down on the cap until you feel a soft click.
Num Lock key — questions
- How do I turn on the number pad (Num Lock) on an MX Keys?
- On a full-size Logitech MX Keys, the Num Lock key, marked with a padlock bearing a “1”, sits at the top left of the keypad, above the 7. Each press switches the keypad between numbers and navigation (arrows, Home, End, Page Up and Down). The keyboard has no Num Lock light: Logi Options+ can show its status on screen.
- Does this Num Lock keycap fit my Logitech MX Keys?
- Yes, if it is a full-size MX Keys (MX Keys, MX Keys S and MX Keys for Mac) in the QWERTY (US) layout. The MX Keys Mini has no numeric keypad.
- Is the hinge included with the Num Lock key?
- Yes, the X-shaped hinge comes with the Num Lock key — it is often the part that broke. Only the rubber dome is not supplied: it stays in place on the keyboard under the Num Lock key, and domes are sold in packs among our spare parts.
- I changed the cap on the Num Lock key, but it still types nothing — what now?
- A key that goes down normally but types nothing points to the rubber dome, sold separately; if the Num Lock key wobbles, it is the hinge, supplied with it. When several keys next to the Num Lock key fail at the same time, the cause is inside the keyboard, not under the cap.
Check your keyboard's brand
You are looking at a Logitech key. Keycap and hinge differ between brands: this key will not fit an Apple keyboard.
