Thanks for the video. For my MacBook, the problem was that the flex cable was loose, so all I had to do was push the pins in a little more. This video was definitely helpful. Thanks again!
This worked perfectly for my macbook pro - same issue - keyboard and trackpad was unresponsive. I purchased the repair kit off amazon - and it was an easy fix.
Thank you Guru
Welcome 😊
I have a mid 2015, 15". I just replaced the battery which was a very difficult job believe it or not requiring a lot of disassembly. I probably tweaked the keyboard cable putting it back together. But thanks to your video that is the first thing I'm going to check and if necessary buy a new one. Thank you!
I went to a shop but they said it might cost about Rs 23,000. I followed your instructions and the keyboard and trackpad started working! I am typing this comment from the repaired macbook. A lot of thanks to you, bro!
Congrats 😀
@@GuruBasavaraj Thanks! 😋
100% works!!!! You’re the man 🎉🎉🎉🎉 100% works. I watched the video 8hrs ago, got parts sent by amazon for same day and now my laptop is working again.
Bought a dirt cheap Macbook Pro 2015 on an auction site with this issue. Seller included a Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse. Bought the flex cable, crossed my fingers and voilá! Fix worked like a charm. I later sold the keyboard & mouse :)
Thanks! I was able to correct the problem without replacement of the cable simply by removing, cleaning, and replacing the existing one. Your video was very helpful!
Thank you so much!! This worked perfect for me. And the crazy part is. I only spent $14 to repair it. I took it to a computer repair shop and they quoted me at $330 to fix this. Said the part costed $200 and the service fee was $130. You saved me a lot of time and money! Great video!
where did you get all your parts for repair?
OMG I ordered the part and the little screwdrivers and IT WORKED!!!! You have no idea how much I appreciate this video you saved me hundreds of dollars!!!!!! I have had mine since I bought it new in 2015 and I plan to use it as long as possible!!!! Thanks again!
Thank you so much for this video, I have the same model and ordered the part and I'm now typing to you from my laptop which I fixed after watching your video! Thank you so so much!
is it still working?
Denis Sales da silva it is! Perfectly!
Great solution Guru! My MBPro keyboard/trackpad was intermittent, then finally stopped working. Simply replaced the cable and good to go!
Great!
where did you get all your parts for repair?
Excellent - I cleaned up the contacts on the ribbon with contact cleaner and a fine emery paper and it worked.
Thank you so much for the video. I was having the same issue. Took to the authorised reseller in Kathmandu, Nepal. They were about to replace trackpad, keyboard and battery as well for about NRS 55,000/-. I followed your video, bought the tools from Amazon, USA which cost me about $22 only. You saved me from mental and monetary stress.
Glad that my video helped you 😊
Thank you. I’ve been searching for ages trying to fix this.
I have the same issue in my macbook air older version will this be helpful in that?
Seriously i dunno what to say, you have made my day, i did exactly as you showed us and it worked!!!!!!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart brother, i wish you more than what you dream for in life.
Your welcome 🙂
This video saved my life. It was so cheap and easy to fix!!!
OMG thank you SO MUCH! I thought my laptop was done and all it needed was to reseat the cable! This was SO amazing!
Bought a new cable for $17 AUD and fixed it myself. Works like normal now. Thanks
Thanks a lot, your video has helped me to fix my MacBook Pro (Early 2015). I bought the flexcable and the necessary screwdrivers on Amazon, and it took like 15 minutes to do the repair. Good stuff!
This is not only happening in India. Their recent products are faulty, one way or the other and they charge a huge sum to fix it. They will never fix smaller issues but only replace the major components that dont even need replacing. Watch some Louis Rossmann videos.
Exactly My Point Brother! For small issues they can't figure out to solve easily!
I can’t address how helpful was this video. I mean I can. It was great !!! Thank you ❤
Your video helped a lot thank you! My keyboard was not working so I ordered the pieces you recommended and fixed it!
Great that my video helped you 😊
This completely fixed my computer for under $20 Thanks!
Hi, please answer me. I have a 2015 MacBook Pro. The keyboard just doesn't work, in fact I can't turn on the computer. Not even the LEDs light up. It only lights up when I charge. The trackpad works, only the keyboard doesn't. She is really dead. What about me, do you think this method could work?
My MacBook Pro 2015 not feel click the trackpad and unconnected keyboard
just curious same as your issues laptop ?
Thank you so much! Worked for me after having my keyboard and track pad not working for 2 years!
hello. My keyboard and trackpad get to work sometimes . so i need to replace the flex cable or is there any other solution for it ?
Amazing! Ty for solving my problem, my Mac and my $$$
Could you please put links on the tools and cable you used in this repair.
Thanks very much for your video. A while back ago I had also taken my mac for service and they wanted to charge a ridiculous ammount for all the replacements. I'll be looking to obtain the flex cable and the specific drills. Thanks!
Thank you so much for help me, I was unexpected about this video, but I try it all your recommendations and my keyboard and trackpad works again. Thaks brah, I'm so happy now.
I have the same problem but replacing the flex cable didn't help. My caps lock light doesn't turn on too. Did that work for you before you replaced the flex cable?
So I did like the video and It worked for a few minutes. But when I put the mac back together It wasnt working anymore. I can still get the trackpad to work with the old cable but the new is dead. Any help?
Thank you Raj. What's actually wrong with the old flex cable? Can it be refixed again
Evans I don't think so! Flex cable over time , it gets stopped working! It's common in electronic devices!
Repair tools are not available on amazon, can you recommend any other tools ?
Hello, I am experiencing the same problem now. I have ordered that flex cable. But in the meantime, I decided to install Linux mint 20 and to my surprise the keyboard and touchpad works well in Linux. Very strange, can you investigate further this issue.
I replaced a battery yesterday and also a new trackpad cable. The cable is fully seated, I did an SMC and PRAM reset method and still no trackpad or keyboard. The key oard does work to do the SMC reset using control, alt and left shift or whatever the sequence is but once booted neither work still....they worked perfect before battery replacement and I've done MANY of these on 2013-2015 machines. Thoughts? Could the trackpad have got damaged? I doubt it as I'm careful but you never know and if so, would that cause keyboard to also not work once booted up? A1502 13" retina early 2015 i7 3.1Ghz. thank you.
I have corrosion on my touchpad and it is causing problems. I unplugged the flat cable and wanted to use an external mouse. But when I it, the keyboard stops working too. Although it has a separate connection to the board. You don't know why this is?
O yes up and running again! Thank you soooo much mate. This would of cost me 6000Nok in Norway’s apple repair Center!!! Fixed it for less than 20euro indeed!! Hero
Working again and much cheaper than taking it back to store. Thanks
Worked for me, thanks!!
Thanks so much, saved me and the wife a lot of trouble!
I now have this same problem in my 2018 model 13inch MacBook Pro. I went to Iplanet and enquired about it, they said to replace the whole motherboard. And it costs around 48000INR. Now what should I do sir? Will those method work for my version?
Guru, when we change the flex cable, will our data will be loss or no effect on the data? Thank you
Nothing will happen, you can go ahead without any doubt !
@@GuruBasavaraj thank you ! I am facing this two times already. 1st time it was just suddenly not working (kb+trackpad), and then i use it as desktop replacement, connect to two monitors and kb external. It works fine. Suddenly, one morning, the KB and trackpad working again (for 3 months). Yesterday, suddenly it is not working again 😂 😂 😂
If this doesn't solve my problem can I switch to the original flex cable again?
Just purchased my cable and report kit. Really hoping this will fix it.
Thank you for the video, I managed to fix my laptop as well, it was very easy.
Thanks buddy you saved me a fortune and relived me off tension that was on for 2 months. 😀👍🏻
I followed the instructions. It works!!! Congrats.
Sir I am facing the exact same problem since 7 months now but didn't think of repairing my macbook until now because of the lockdown. I have ordered for the tools and flex cable mentioned. I just had one question, after changing the cable since the day you did it have you faced any issue yet with your mac?
Now Amazon started , delivering all products so you can buy it! And Till now I didn’t face any issue!
I have replaced the cable and my keyboard started working again but it stopped the next day. I reinstalled the cable and the keyboard worked but again it stopped later. Any suggestions?
I can't thank you enough!!!!!!!! You saved me so much money. If anyone is browsing through the comments to know if it is legit, IT IS trust me
Hi will this work with MacBook retina 12 inch early 2015 model?
Will this work in MacBook Air as well. I am facing the same issue 😔
Thank you so much, it worked with me and you saved me a lot of money

Is the trackpad working?
Or both keyboard and trackpad same issue?
First thing u change the flex cable , 90% it's coz of cable !
If only trackpad or keyboard , it might be some hardware issue,
Good luck with flex cable, hope it solve this issue!:)
You saved my life 💓
This worked so well!! thank you!!
Thank you so much for the video
Sir ! Im having the same problem! Sometimes its working fine but sometimes its not! Please help sir?
Bro my power button is working but my trackpad and keyboard doesn’t work. It’s flex cable issue?
Astrick may be yes!
The P5 screwdriver isn’t fitting in the screws due to which I’m unable to open the back, please help
Anurag Lodha I think u have to buy a MacBook retina kit
I have a question, I have a similar problem, but the trackpad and the keyboard only stop being recognized after the main login screen is passed. When I restart the computer, the keyboard and the trackpad work fine, however after the screen with the loading bar is complete the keyboard and the trackpad becomes unresponsive and the mac automatically opens up a window that searches for Bluetooth keyboard and mouse devices. Will this solution work for me?
Ansuk Samal May be , u can give try
Hi ansuk . I am facing the same issue did u get any solution for this?
Did you replaced the cable and did that worked
I just open the back of my mac up, and then push the connecter down and then the trackpad and keyboard worked again. Apperently there were a loose connection.
Thanks bro it works
Thanks!
Thank you!!
Yep without issue
Fix my macbook with this method. The jack is just loose
thanks!

Wow awesome job 👏
Thank You 😊
Awesome.
I did this and my mouse and keyboard work, but now my laptop shuts off when the charger isn’t plugged in and my battery is not able to be shown on the menu bar. Anyone know how to fix this?
Sounds like an issue with the battery.
abhipesit abhipesit actually I fixed it!! It wasn’t the battery, I just plugged the power cable back in place wrong or not fully in. Went back in and unplugged the power cable and plugged it back in fully this time and it worked perfectly brand new!!!!
Glad you figured it out
my keyboard from letter A - L is not working. even Im using USB keyboard
still not working bro
only power button working
Did not work for me :-(
Me neither!
Yash Patel Later i bought another cable from eBay and surprisingly it worked for around two month. Then when setting up network I inserted a displayport to rj45 adapter and it never worked again.
Super
My macbook pro retina 13" from 2015 had the same problem. I've changed the cable and it worked fine for two weeks until the same problem happened again. I just discovered that if I open the hardware and move the cable it recognizes ir again. I think it's a poblem related to putting the funcking cable next to the battery because of the heat (so this is a problem o hardware design of the assholes of Apple). Try what I'm saying, you don't precisely need to change the cable, it just needs to move and push the connectors and it will work again until the heat loosens it again. This is Apple fault for the design so they should take care of the bad hardware design.
