My Keyboard is clean without any dust.Few days ago small amount of water has spilt on the keyboard.Please help me in resolving this issue.

Spilling water on a keyboard is not good. The "g" key has become shorted and a few others sound intermittent. If the unit's not under warranty, Dell will ship a replacement keyboard for $25. It's pretty easy to replace but requires the top case be removed.
