Can I replace the laser bulb?

Everything is working on my Magic Mouse but the laser sensor, itself. I can gesture, scroll, right click, double-click to select a word. BUT the laser no longer comes on, so I can't move the pointer. Can I replace the laser?

I've never seen this part fail. I would suspect a failed solder joint. Of course if it is less than a year old, get a warranty replacement from Apple. If not, I'd tear it down and see if I could spot the problem. Here's the teardown: Magic Mouse Teardown

You're right mayer, mine wasn't working well, only clicks and movements but no cursor moving. Once opened, I've heater the laser pinouts with a soldering iron and it's working well now. The problem now is to fix the batteries plugs. In order to disassemble properly, we need to cut 2 plastic pieces who maintain the metallic rounded batteries plugs on the frame

Can I solder without removing the capacitive sensor ribbon nor the battery case? @kospeia Did you achieve to do it?

What Part of the mouse do you solder once you open it up?

Asher Solder the place where you no longer have continuity.

I had the same problem! After several attempts, I tried to push the lens with a pencil eraser, now it works fine

Hello fabrizio,

Did you just press it up, without opening the mouse?

Thanks in advance!

crwdns2934271:0crwdnd2934271:0crwdne2934271:0

Hello Antonio, yes, you can do it without opening..... but ... the operation did not last much for me :-(

I think at this point that you have to open it and solder contacts with a soldering iron!
