Debugging vim keypresses

I was wondering if there is a way to see what commands are run by vim when I press a certain key.

In particular I am facing the rather weird behavior that vim does not execute my redefined behavior to switch between splits. I have the following lines in my .vimrc that remap the movement keys:

map <c-j> <c-w>j
map <c-k> <c-w>k
map <c-l> <c-w>l
map <c-h> <c-w>h
nnoremap j gj
nnoremap k gk

According to these remappings I want to be able to switch between splits by simply using ctrl + one of the movement keys.

It works for all keys except for j and I wanted to find out if that key might have been remapped by one of my installed plugins. Is there any way to check this?

I do not know about any really debuging feature but you can try :verbose map <shortcut>. It often provides useful info.

You can find out more about the mapping using the following command:

:verbose nnoremap j
