HP ProBook 640 G1 Keyboard, Non-Backlit (P/N 738688-001)

HP ProBook 640 G1 Keyboard Replacement, Non-Backlit

Fix a broken or unresponsive keyboard on your HP ProBook 640 G1 with this genuine-fit HP ProBook 640 G1 Keyboard replacement (P/N 738688-001). A direct drop-in fit built to the original factory specification. The 640 G1 is a 14-inch business laptop that saw heavy use in Kenyan offices, and after years of daily typing it’s common for the space bar, shift keys, or an entire row to stop registering — a full keyboard swap resolves this for good.

Key Features & Benefits

• Direct Fit – matches the original ProBook 640 G1 keyboard well exactly
• Brand New – not refurbished
• US Layout – standard QWERTY English keyboard
• Full Key Travel – restores normal typing feel
• Accurate Frame Fit – screw posts and retaining clips line up with the factory 738688-001 chassis without filing or forcing
• Matching Deck Finish – grey-black surround matches the original 640 G1 palm rest so the swap doesn’t look out of place
• Reliable Ribbon Cable – factory pin count and orientation for a straightforward plug-in connection

Performance & Reliability

Built specifically for the HP ProBook 640 G1 Keyboard well, this replacement is fit-tested before listing to guarantee a precise match and reliable everyday typing performance.

Every unit is run through a full key-press check before dispatch to rule out dead keys, ghosting, or sticking switches, and the frame is inspected for flatness so it seats flush against the chassis. A warped or poorly seated frame is the most common reason a “new” keyboard still feels loose after fitting, so we catch that before it ever reaches you.

Compatibility

Fits HP ProBook 640 G1 laptops, part number 738688-001. Confirm your exact model before ordering.

The 640 G1 shares its chassis with the 645 G1, but the keyboard wells differ slightly between the two, so this board is specific to the 640 G1 model. Check the part number printed on the underside of your current keyboard or the system label under the battery to confirm you have 738688-001 before ordering, especially if your laptop was imported second-hand.

Safety & Quality Standards

Every keyboard is inspected for correct pinout, key travel, and frame fit before shipping, protecting your motherboard connector from damage during installation.

Easy Installation

Power off and unplug the laptop, remove the battery, release the keyboard retaining screws or clips, disconnect the ribbon cable, and fit the new keyboard by reversing the steps. Any laptop repair technician in Kenya can also fit it for you.

Ideal Users & Use Cases

Ideal for professionals running HP ProBook 640 G1 laptops who need a fast, affordable fix for missing or unresponsive keys. It’s well suited to office administrators and accountants who spend the day in spreadsheets and documents, IT support teams maintaining a fleet of ageing ProBooks, and small repair shops that need a dependable stock part for walk-in customers. It’s also the right fix for anyone whose keyboard failed after a liquid spill rather than normal wear.
