Product Details
Has the trackpad on your MacBook Air M1 stopped clicking or responding, or have the keyboard and trackpad stopped working together? Apple calls this the input device flex cable: it joins the trackpad, and the keyboard through it, to the logic board.
One cable fits both 2020 MacBook Airs: the M1 A2337 and the Intel A2179. For the 2018 to 2019 A1932 or the M2 A2681, get the A1932 cable or the A2681 cable. Need the trackpad too? We stock the A2337 trackpad and the A2179 trackpad.
Part Includes:
- 1x Trackpad flex cable
- 12 Month Warranty
Please Note
Does NOT fit the 2018 to 2019 A1932 or the M2 A2681. Check the A-number on the bottom case.
Please Note
This is the cable only. The trackpad and its screws are not included.
Please Note
The battery is only unplugged and the cable cover comes off. The trackpad and logic board stay in.
