[QUOTE="silverdagger, post: 1842849, member: 403926"] Hi Steve, Thanks for your response. Reference 'the wire', I should have been more clear. All ribbon cables look fine (and all lockbars are present and functioning), although, I'll admit I haven't changed the ribbon cable from the trackPad to the logic board (maybe that could be my next, and frankly, cheaper step?) The ribbon from the keyboard is new as I replaced the keyboard. So, back to the wire: Please see the original TrackPad below: [ATTACH=FULL]31106[/ATTACH] The wire under the lockbar on the left, you should see it looks darker. There was some loose crud in between a couple of the wire, which I cleaned out. But after that, it never worked again. So I changed the trackpad for another... but the problem still remains. Reference the ASD issue... it's starting to look like I need to take it to Apple or an AASP... any recommendations? Is this going to cost me an arm and a leg? [/QUOTE]
