Introdução

The Trackpad is an essential component to the laptop, allowing you to operate the computer. Oftentimes, after long term use the trackpad will become stuck, jammed, or unresponsive when trying to use it. If your trackpad has issues like this then you may need to replace it.

    • Ensure the laptop is powered off and the charging cable is disconnected before opening the back cover.

    • Flip over the laptop to access the back cover.

    I've seen also that it's recommended to activate the option : <Disable Built-in Battery> in the BIOS > POWER

    As the battery apparently still emits a little bit even when turned off.

    • Use a Phillips #0 screwdriver to remove the eight 8 mm screws.

    More pricesely, screws need to be unscrewed, but not removed, since they stay attached to the back cover. Trying to remove them may damage the small gaskets around the screw shaft.

    • Remove the back cover.

    • A popping sound may occur when the back cover is removed.

    Good solution, but where do I find the battery?

    • Follow the ribbon cable that runs from the left speaker to the motherboard.

    • Pull the black connector up and release the cable wire by hand.

    • If needed, pull this connector up using the Pro/ESD/angled tweezers.

    I didn't find a black connector so I skipped this

    • Use a spudger to pop the ribbon cable that runs from the upper-middle portion of the battery to the motherboard out of the motherboard.

    • Do not use a metal spudger as indicated in the photos. The metal spudger should only be used for serious prying power. If it's used on the internal components of a device, it may puncture or damage the components in your device.

    • Use a Phillips #0 screwdriver to remove one 6 mm screw from the bottom-middle portion of the battery.

    • Remove the battery.

    Good Lord. That shot of the metal death spudger lifting up the battery connector... Great way to turn your battery into an IED.
