Hello.

I am willing to purchase a trackpad from here and i would like to ask before.

It happened that I spilled a soda on my Macbook pro 13inch mid 2009 model A1278

And my trackpad kind of screwed I've cleaned it but unfortunately it still cannot work probably.

So Is it possible to replace the trackpad only without replacing the whole top/upper case of my mac?

I am not going to do it, an apple authorized store will do and he confirmed me that it could replace with no problem.

nothing damaged just my trackpad. and I am willing to buy it from here and want to make sure that the employee is correct.

As long as you are sure it is a mid 2009 model, we sell just the trackpad.

Please I have purchased the trackpad and I am sure it is under shipping process.

My Macbook pro model is A1278 and serial number is
Serial Number (system): W8928JQT66D


For better view this is a screen shot of my system information.



Please can you confirm again that the trackpad in MBP unibody mid2009 is replaceable?

Thanks again.

Yep, that should work.

thanks so much for the fast supporting

Last question: any wire I should buy with the trackpad? i am not going to install it but maybe something goes wrong and needs to be replaced? or it is very easy and safe?


thanks.

You will have to handle the logic board during the repair, so you may want a grounding wire or at least make sure you ground yourself before touching the machine.

I received the trackpad today and I did not do anything .

Im still confused on how to do it.

Is there any tutorial teach how to replace the trackpad? I have asked a lots of people but know one helped me.

it is fairly straightforward once you get to the top case. just unscrew it and screw the new one back in. if that didn't fix the issue it might be a problem with the top case or logic board.

Hi

Thanks so much.

Everything is fine now my new trackpad is fitted in and it is great!!!

one last thing is there a tutorial how to take of the keyboard keys ( shift key and enter key) because last time i took them off and i broke the hing because i don't know how to take them off.

i bought a new keys and I putted them in but forgot to clean the inside key because it is sticky and i am afraid i don't want to take the key off like last time i did and broke the plastic hing
