    sorry not the actual touchpad but one of the buttons right under it, equivalent to the left mouse button

    My right click button stopped working last month. Well, sometimes if you clicked it really hard, it would work. Anyways, I took it to the service center and they didn't replace it but they did fix it.

    im kinda wondering if some dirt got under there and is blocking the contact. i might have a look myself before sending it in as long as it wont void my warranty.
    any disassembly guides?
