To determine whether the Touch Pad is faulty or not, perform the following procedures:

Procedure 1 Diagnostic Test Program Execution Check

Procedure 2 Connector checking and replacement checking

Procedure 3: Replacement Check

Procedure 1 Diagnostic Test Program Execution Check

Execute the keyboard test program, or maintenance test program, because the pointing device test program is a component of the keyboard test program. For the operating procedure, see Chapter 3.

If any error is detected, perform Procedure 2. The pointing device is operating normally if no error is detected.

Procedure 2 Connector checking and replacement checking

The touch pad is connected to the System board (PJ334) with a flexible cable. This cable may have come off the connector or the connector may have come off the System board. Disassemble the computer and check the cable connections. See Chapter 4 for the disassembly procedure. If the connector has come off, connect firmly and make sure the operation. If there is still an error, go to Procedure 3.
