Einleitung

If your Dell XPS 15 9560 laptop's touchpad is not responding to inputs, is damaged, or is falling out completely, use this guide to replace it.

Before using this guide, be sure to check that there are no other issues that could be causing issues with the touchpad. Two things to check are too into the laptop's settings menu and check that the touchpad is enabled, or clean and dry the touchpad to ensure it isn't debris being picked up as an input signal.

Prior to starting your repair, turn off your laptop and unplug it from the power adapter.

Schritt 1

Using a T5 Torx screwdriver, remove ten 4.0 mm screws from the back panel of the laptop.

Schritt 2

Using a Phillips #2 screwdriver, remove two 5.0 mm screws underneath the XPS badge door.

Schritt 3

Wedge the scribe between the backplate and remove the bottom base cover.

Schritt 4

Using a T5 Torx screwdriver, remove the six 4.0 mm screws.

On the Dell XPS 15 9560 that I just did a battery replacement on the battery was not held in by torx screws. It was the larger 97wh battery and was held in by 6 phillips head screws. I was able to get them out with a PH1 bit.

Seconded. In the photo the author isn't even holding a torx driver.
