Macbook Unibody Track Pad Fix and Removal 2008 A1278 Apple Dollars #5

If your macbook or macbook pro trackpad is not clicking or acting funny or you have a cracked trackpad, this video is a must. Here I explain how a macbook trackpad works, how to fix it or replace it, how to clean it and some very important must know tips.

Quick tip: In many instances a non clicking trackpad can be fixed by tightening or loosening the track pad tensioner screw.

Liquid can get into the space around the trackpad and dry up causing a false signal to be sent to the Operating System. Cleaning the track pad will fix the issue.

This is a super easy fix, Costing you a grand total of $0!

Here are all the items you need:

Toothbrush or a washcloth
Y-0 screwdriver
15 min of free time

This will also work for all the following models:

2008 13" Macbook Unibody
2008 13" Macbook Pro
2008 15" Macbook Pro
2008 17" Macbook Pro
2009 13" Macbook Pro
2009 15" Macbook Pro
2009 17" Macbook Pro
2010 13" Macbook Pro

This process takes takes about 5-15 minutes depending on experience.
