iBook G4 keyboard issues

Hello! My iBook G4 keyboard has some weird behavior. Randomly writes text, then uses enter sometimes. Sometimes refuses to write anything. Caps Lock sometimes lights up when pressed(left side of keyboard seems to no to always work), num lock does. Any fix? How to clean it?(had minor issues with some keys previously-repeating or not working.)

External Apple Pro keyboard from my PowerMac is working once I unstick those keys by pressing with palm on right side of KB.
