Question Spacebar not always registering, sometimes registers twice

My keyboard is around 2 years old, the spacebar is the only one which doesn't work all the time.
One regular tap 50% of the times doesn't register, 45% of the times registers one space, 5% of the times registers 2 or more (has gone to around 5 maximum)
It doesn't matter how much pressure I put in or where in the spacebar I press, its always around what I told earlier.

Do I need to replace my keyboard, or is there a way to fix it?
My keyboard was around 60€ (mechanical keyboard), and I don't want to waste another 60€ for just a spacebar, but if it comes to it, I gues..

Pop all the keys off and deep clean the keyboard it may have sothing sticking to it

Look up modle nuber and see if you can order a new space bar sounds like something on the clips broke.
Yes that was the issue, I removed the keycap and even like that it doesn't always work as it should.
I searched and couldn't find a place to buy new clips for this model, perhaps you know a place that has a lot of keyboard models?

Just had an idea, if I replace the mechanical switches from the spacebar with one of the numKeys, would it work? or are they designed for each specific spot? Model is MKPlus Slayer M3
