Weird noise on Spacebar (Blackwidow Lite Keyboard)

When I pressed on the left side of the keyboard, it makes some metallic clickly noise. As I click further away from left, that metallic noise dampens to nothing.

Edit: Does anyone know what's the issue and can it be fixed?

Has the spacebar been removed before? This sounds like the stabilizer isn't seated correctly. You can try to reseat it. But if the problem persists, you will want to lube the stabilizer.

How do I reseat the stabilizers and which part should I lube?

You will have to remove the spacebar to be able to reseat the thin metal wire. I highly recommend that you check out custom keyboard videos on how to lube the stabilizers. The last thing you want is an over-greased part and a messy backplate.

I tried reseating it and the problem still persists. The one thing I noticed is the cause of the sound is from the thin wire colliding with the keycaps.

(I tapped the keycaps lightly above the left and right stabilize, one at a time). The first one is from the right stabilizer with no noise, while the second one is from the other stabilizer with the problem)

It looks like the plastic pillars of sorts popped out a bit so the travel has more resistance. Gently push one of the pillars down, and let me know if the problem persists. If so, we may have to look into your RMA options.
