Replacement Keyboard for Dell Latitude and XPS

This backlit keyboard replaces part XCD5M on Dell Latitude 7275, E5270, E7270 and XPS 9250 laptops. It is a new, black unit supplied for owners whose original keyboard is broken or missing keys. The part restores full typing and backlight function on those specific models.

Layout and Connector Constraints

The keyboard uses the proprietary ribbon connector and mounting points defined for the 12‑inch Latitude and XPS chassis. It will not fit other Dell series or third‑party laptops because the flex‑cable pinout and screw positions are unique to the listed part numbers. Buyers must verify their exact model number before ordering.

Straightforward Swap With Common Pitfalls

Installation requires removing the bottom case, disconnecting the battery, and releasing the keyboard ribbon cable — steps that are standard for these ultrabooks. The most frequent issues are tearing the fragile flex cable during removal and forgetting to reseat the connector fully, which leaves the backlight or certain keys non‑functional.
