MacBook Pro butterfly: Actuator broke off
Hi,
my brother ruined the delete key on his MacBook PRO 2017 A1708. Not only was the black cap broken, but the actuator(I believe it is called) was missing the black dot as well. I bought a full replacement for the delete button. When I removed the original actuator I think I broke some of the pegs/legs that hold the actuator in place. The result is that there is a small plastic piece in the hole of the keypad that blocks me from inserting my new actuator. My understanding is that I may need to take out the whole computer to get access to the rear part of the keyboard, to be able to remove that plastic piece. I’m hoping there is an alternative solution that is not that drastic?
Is this a good question?
