Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓This guide will show you how to replace the trackpad (or touchpad) on your Acer Chromebook CP5-471-C0EX laptop. If your touchpad isn't working, it may be a result of a missing or out-of-date driver or a build-up of dirt and dust over time. The replacement of the trackpad may solve issues with unresponsiveness.
