my mac keyboard on my MBA is gone flaky, so i need to use Bluetooth mac K/b for now..
Only 4 keys not working:- n m < >/ and , . being on save key(s)
is it easy to repair (if possible) or does top part need replacement too? (all-in-one)? i tried prying up one of the keycaps, but it still didn’t respond after cleaning underneath, i’m thinking i could gin access from inside the case somehow.
Is this a good question?

The easiest way is replacing the uppercase MacBook Air 13" (Mid 2013-2017) Upper Case with Keyboard Its a bit of work MacBook Air 13" Early 2017 Upper Case Replacement but less than what you would need to replace the keyboard alone.

you won't believe this but a re-install fixed this problem.
@tech198 - That doesn't make sense!
There must have been a stuck key and you moved the system enough to dislodge the junk which was jamming it or preventing it to work. I would still open it up and after lifting the black cover (backlight) carefully blow the junk out. If it james up again then you now know what it will take.
your right.. most keys now work except the letter"O" it's permanent busted in fact i tried to pry up the cap and clear but and accidentally broke off the plastic done underneath the key
oh well...
In any case, circumstances now changed, so after a new Mac.
