DEB.

What you can try is hooking up a USB keyboard to try and see if that Y is working now if it workes on a external keyboard then its time to use your apple care to have the keyboard switched out. I know you where looking for a better answer then this but the issue is complexity and time. I want you to diagnose your problem and solve it that way not fix the wroung problem make sense? So if the external keyboard wroks then the mac book keyboard will need repair.

Thanks nad please do be considerate when passing threw fixya to leave feedback and ratings.

Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/edwy_1a56970cf1ea4620

My macbook keyboard got wet inside when i was clean the keyboard

pull the battery and disconnect the power first... you don't need it getting corroded inside due to electrical and temp..
Then get a compressed air can... at your local electronics store..
Blow around the h letter... see if you can force dry it a bit.
You may be able to rescue your macbook, if no luck let me know I have a good pdf of how to pull the top off your unit with step by step instructions...
