Hello, I have a particularly weird issue, I've had to repair my old 12" 2015 Macbook, replaced the battery but also had to replace the keyboard, Apple quoted me 400 Euro, but I managed to source both of the parts for less than 120 Euro and replace it myself.
Everything went well until I noticed that the Left Shift, Control, Option keys are recognized as constantly actuated, I used Karabiner to disable these keys and it worked perfectly, all of the other keys are unaffected, just these.
Further digging into this issue led me to find out that I was sold a 2016 12" keyboard, and even though it fits the specification, it is slightly different in its logic (thanks, Apple, very consumer friendly!), but this also means that the magnetic sensor for the keyboard and screen line up in a weird way, making sleep behave weird.
If I close the macbook it wakes from sleep, then after some time goes back to sleep, then wakes again ad nauseum until it is drained.
I've remedied this by shutting down the macbook when not in use to conserve battery, which works, but isn't always ideal when you need it in a pinch.
I could continue to use it this way, but I was wondering if it's possible to mitigate this a bit more, and manually put the laptop to sleep and wake it with the keyboard/touchpad.
Thanks.
