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 − key on the numeric keypad and what does it do?
On a full-size Logitech MX Keys, the − key on the numeric keypad sits at the top right of the keypad, above +. It types the minus sign, for subtractions, in a calculator or a spreadsheet. Unlike the keypad digits, it does not depend on Num Lock.
About the - (Num) replacement key
An incomplete keypad slows down every figure you type: this - (Num) key for the MX Keys, shipped with its hinge, replaces the missing one. We take the - (Num) key from dismantled keyboards: it is a genuine, pre-owned Logitech cap, sold without the dome.
Compatibility
This - (Num) 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 QWERTZ (DE) layout.
The - (Num) key: position, size and wear
The numeric keypad exists only on the full-size MX Keys, and its keys are hammered in quick one-handed runs during data entry. Like every one-unit key, the - (Num) key has no metal wire underneath: it is held only by its scissor hinge, clipped onto four anchor points. Once one clip gives way, the key tilts, pops off or falls out, while the cap itself is often intact.
How to install it
Fitting takes no tools. If the old hinge under the - (Num) key is split, remove its fragments; seat the one supplied, hold the new cap flat above it and press the middle — a click tells you it is held.
- (Num) key — questions
- Where is the − key on the numeric keypad and what does it do?
- On a full-size Logitech MX Keys, the − key on the numeric keypad sits at the top right of the keypad, above +. It types the minus sign, for subtractions, in a calculator or a spreadsheet. Unlike the keypad digits, it does not depend on Num Lock.
- Will the - (Num) key fit my MX Keys?
- Yes, if it is a full-size MX Keys (MX Keys, MX Keys S and MX Keys for Mac) in the QWERTZ (DE) layout. The MX Keys Mini has no numeric keypad.
- Is the hinge included with the - (Num) key?
- Yes, the X-shaped hinge comes with the - (Num) 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) key, and domes are sold in packs among our spare parts.
- My - (Num) key still doesn't work after I replaced the cap — why?
- First try the - (Num) key on another computer or in another program, to rule out a setting. If it stays silent, look under the cap: with a split hinge it moves crooked; with a crushed or loose dome it goes down without typing.
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.
