When you see the low battery warning, save your work, and keep your laptop on until it goes to sleep due to low battery. Wait at least 5 hours, then charge your laptop uninterrupted to 100%.

    • If you are installing a replacement trackpad that didn't come with the attached flex cable, you'll need to use the cable from your old trackpad.

    • To remove the flex cable from the old trackpad, first flip open the latch on the ZIF connector, opposite the cable. Then, apply a little heat from a hair dryer or iOpener to soften the adhesive securing the cable to the trackpad, and carefully peel off and remove the cable.

    • When installing your new trackpad, routing the cable through the upper case and past the logic board may be difficult. It is helpful to use the tip of a spudger to guide the connector past the logic board while pushing the cable through its slot in the upper case with your other hand.

In the other trackpad replacement guide, it doesn't have this tip, to take off the clicker and clean it. I did just that thanks to this guide and the clicker is now working reliably again.

That's great. The one I repaired this way has been working great. The original replacement guide is just that. It's meant to remove the trackpad and replace it with a new one. I figured I had nothing to lose by digging a little deeper to fix the one I had and this guide is the result. Glad it was helpful.
