I have a Corsair K70 with cherry MX red switches. I had a water spill a couple of weeks ago and let it dry out for a few days. The W key isn't responsive now. I'll usually have to hold it down for a second or tap it a few times to get it to activate. This is an expensive keyboard so I'd rather not get another one. Do I need to replace the switch? Is it more likely that there's some component of the circuit board itself which isn't working? I don't know what I'm doing so any advice would be appreciated.
