Is there any way to reinitialize an external third party USB keyboard? I hit a wrong key after MACOS detected the new keyboard hardware. Now, my keymapping is not correct.
I need to remove or reinitialize it (repeating the hardware detection).
Any ideas?

Tell us what the right and wrong keymappings are that you are referring to.

Try going to System Preferences -> Keyboard and click the "Change Keyboard Type..." button in the lower left corner. This should restart the keyboard type detection.
Thanks. I already tried this, but it seems that the button don't work. Nothing happens when I trigger it.

@berlin104 Hm, strange. For me it opens a new window with the Keyboard Setup Assistant and lets me continue to setup the keyboard again. Might it be that the window pops up underneath another or off screen?

Jap. That's really strange... I don't see this button always. Seems that it appears random.

I found a solution. If anyone stumbles over this thread (Thanks to TOM - see: https://m10lmac.blogspot.com/2009/12/fixing-keyboard-type-problems.html):
Remove the keyboard file (see command), unplug the USB keyboard and reboot. Reconnect the keyboard which opens the keyboard detection assistant.
Command:
rm /Library/Preferences/com.apple.keyboardtype.plist
