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 F1 key and what does it do?
On a full-size Logitech MX Keys, the F1 key sits on the top row, between Esc and F2. By default it triggers the function drawn on the key; held with Fn, it sends F1, which opens the help in many programs. Fn + Esc swaps that behaviour for the whole row.
About the F1 replacement key
The F1 key from the top row of the Logitech MX Keys, supplied with its hinge, to replace a key that cracked, was torn off or got lost. Genuine Logitech and pre-owned, the F1 key was removed from another keyboard; only the rubber dome is not included.
Compatibility
This F1 keycap fits the full-size MX Keys (MX Keys, MX Keys S and MX Keys for Mac), not the MX Keys Mini, whose top-row caps are shorter. The legend is that of the QWERTY (ES) layout. On the MX Keys S, the top-row keys carry different icons, so this key will not match them exactly.
The F1 key: position, size and wear
It carries two markings: a drawn icon in the middle and “F1” in a corner — the two functions Fn switches between. Pressed less often than a letter, the F1 key wears more slowly, but its scissor hinge is just as thin: a fingernail, a cloth or an object resting on the keyboard that catches it sideways can tear a clip off.
How to install it
Allow under a minute to refit the F1 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. To test it, try it alone and then with Fn held: one press triggers the drawn function, the other F1.
F1 key — questions
- Where is the F1 key and what does it do?
- On a full-size Logitech MX Keys, the F1 key sits on the top row, between Esc and F2. By default it triggers the function drawn on the key; held with Fn, it sends F1, which opens the help in many programs. Fn + Esc swaps that behaviour for the whole row.
- Is the F1 key compatible with my MX Keys keyboard?
- Yes on a full-size MX Keys (MX Keys, MX Keys S and MX Keys for Mac); no on the MX Keys Mini, whose top-row caps are shorter.
- Is the hinge included with the F1 key?
- Yes. The hinge travels in the parcel with the F1 key, ready to fit; what you will not find is the rubber dome, which never leaves your keyboard and is sold separately if needed.
- My F1 key triggers its icon instead of F1 (or the other way round) — is it broken?
- No, that is the Fn lock. Hold Fn to get the other function, or press Fn + Esc to swap the behaviour of the whole row. A broken key leans, catches or no longer goes down.
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.
