Trackpad became non-clickable after cleaning with a piece of paper
Made a some cleanup, maybe used 1-1.5cm of paper inside trackpad. Now it not vibrating, reboot not helps, SMC reset not helps. Any way it is not broken just detached?

Did you use a liquid cleaner? This series has a taptic engine not a mechanical trackpad
So you may have damaged it.

Here’s the guide you’ll need to follow 2016年晚期13寸带Touch Bar的 MacBook Pro 触控板更换 and yes, this is the 2016 13” guide which is the same for your 2017 15” system. Here’s the needed part MacBook Pro 15" Retina (Late 2016-2019) Trackpad

I have the same issue. My hair suddenly entered a gap below between the trackpad and the Mac body. I just poked inside a gap with a paper, then the click feeling stopped. Is the only way to replace with a new trackpad? Oh..no..
You may not need to replace it just clean the edge of the case and the trackpad. Follow the guide to take it out.
WARNING Use a slightly damped cloth or paper towel with 85% or better isopropyl alcohol. You don't want the isopropyl alcohol to wick up into the layers of the trackpad. A too wet cloth or towel can damage your trackpad.
Thank you for your comment. I followed Dan's comment saying "clean the edge of the case and the trackpad using a cleansing wipe (a slightly wet tissue)". And there was nothing happened, so I opened a case again to take a photo to ask a question. I simulated using a paper the same way as I did before making in trouble. After that, when I booted on, haptic clicking function comes back. I don't think just simulating again might cause haptic clicking function to work. I am not sure what it happens but I really appreciate Dan's comment.
I did the same mistake with the paper but I fixed it by poking arround even more
Happened to me too. fixed it by poking more. specially bottom center
