Corsair RGB K70 - F3 / 3 / E / D / X - Unresponsive

One of my hands had a spasm the other day and spilt orange on my keyboard, it's a K70 RGB. A number of issues occurred after this. A few of the lighting controllers started showing the wrong colour and a column of keys became unresponsive (F3 / 3 / E / D / X).

 

I have cleaned the keyboard with air, I have bathed it in water and I have bathed it in isopropyl alcohol. After this, the colours now work correctly, so that's a plus, but the above mentioned keys still don't work.

 

Can anyone provide any advice or help? I would prefer to avoid buying a new one, they are expensive yo.

When keys stop working do this. If this doesn't work take the keyboard apart and reconnect anything that might be slightly unplugged. Or buy a 10$ keyboard for the time being.

I have tested the switches with a multimeter, the F3 key has no continuity.

 

Would replacing the key work?
