Lenovo laptops use either ALPS or Synaptics touchpads. If this doesn’t work, you may need to replace the Touchpad itself. You can do this by carefully unplugging the cable and then plugging it back in. Find your Lenovo Hardware Maintenance Manual on Lenovo’s support site and it will show you how to disassemble your Lenovo laptop and replace the Touchpad.įirst, try reseating the cable that connects the Touchpad to the motherboard. Lenovo Touchpads are usually located just under the palm rest and are easy to remove and replace.

If you are comfortable opening up your Lenovo laptop, you can try reseating or replacing the Touchpad yourself. Opening your laptop is a somewhat advanced procedure and may void your Lenovo warranty if you are still covered. If your laptop is out of warranty and none of the fixes above have resolved your Touchpad problem, you may want to try looking at the hardware which will require you to remove the back panel of the laptop.
