Touchpad Check
If the touchpad doesn’t work, do the following actions one at a time to correct
the problem. Do not replace a non-defective FRU:
1. Reconnect the touchpad cables.
2. Replace the touchpad cables.
3. Replace the touchpad.
After you use the touchpad, the pointer drifts on the screen for a short time.
This self-acting pointer movement can occur when a slight, steady pressure
is applied to the touchpad pointer. This symptom is not a hardware pro blem.
No service actions are necessary if the pointer movement stops in a short
period of time.
