Problems we fix
- The trackpad will not click or the click feels stiff
- The pointer jumps or moves by itself
- Multi-finger gestures do not work
- The trackpad has lifted up
- Liquid damage
Watch out for the battery
A trackpad that suddenly will not click, or that has lifted, is very often being pushed by a swollen battery sitting right underneath it. That is more than an annoyance: a swollen battery must be replaced promptly. Stop charging the MacBook and bring it in for a check.
The repair
We check whether the problem is the trackpad itself, its flex cable or the battery. If needed we fit a new trackpad, adjust the click and test all gestures, plus Force Touch on models that have it.
