I have a single dead-ish key

As a first step, I’d recommend trying the built-in test mode, to see if it shows an error for the mentioned key. See this post for a short HOWTO:

Then, send a mail to help@keyboard.io, with your original post here, and the test mode results. They’ll walk you through the possible options. Emailing that address is important - especially if the key was dead on arrival - so they can keep a tally of faults.
