Trackpad Assembly
The Force Touch trackpad relies on integrated strain gauges and a Taptic Engine to simulate tactile feedback. If the internal electromagnetic coil of the actuator fails or the force sensors lose calibration, the trackpad will feel like a 'dead' piece of glass. Replacing the entire assembly is the standard resolution as the Taptic Engine is bonded to the touch surface.

Trackpad Flex Cable
This ribbon cable transmits data for the touch interface and the high-current pulses required to drive the haptic actuator. Stress or corrosion on the traces can lead to a partial failure where touch tracking remains functional, but the signal to fire the Taptic Engine is lost, resulting in a 'no click' state.

Lithium-ion Polymer Battery Assembly
Internal off-gassing in the battery cells can cause volumetric expansion (swelling) directly beneath the trackpad. This mechanical pressure exerts a constant upward force on the trackpad's underside, essentially 'maxing out' the force sensors and preventing them from detecting the change in pressure required to trigger a haptic click.
