Install the fingerprint sensor, part 2
  • Gently insert the top edges of the palmrest under the screen hinges, then lay it down onto the rest of the laptop.

  • Carefully slide the touchpad ribbon cable back under the metal frame and latch it back to the motherboard. (I found it easiest to do with a spudger or blunt tweezers on plastic edges of the ribbon cable.)

  • Your fingerprint sensor's ribbon cable should already be pre-bent to match grooves in the metal frame below it. Try to position in it that groove as you reattach the palmrest.

  • Gently press down around the edges of the palmrest to snap it back into the body of the laptop.
