If the trackpad on your Lenovo Flex 6-11IGM (model #: 81A70005US) is not functioning properly, use this guide to help you replace it.
The trackpad allows the user to be able to move the mouse around on the screen and select things on the screen of the laptop. Technically it is a pointing device that translates motion and position of the user’s fingers on it to the screen.
Before beginning make sure you power off the device and make sure the laptop is closed for an easier and safer replacement.
