Use this guide to replace your Acer Chromebook 15 CB3-532-C47C’s touchpad.

The touchpad is used to navigate and click on items in the Chromebook via the cursor, similar to the mouse on a desktop computer. A malfunctioning touchpad will not respond to your touch or is slow to respond.

We recommend reviewing the device’s troubleshooting page for other solutions, such as cleaning the touchpad, prior to replacing the touchpad.

Power off and unplug your computer before beginning the replacement.
