Question: Will replacing my palm rest fix my problem...?

(Posted by: mark869 on 2009-10-14 18:08:11)

So I have an Inspiron 1525 and the left click button doesnt pop all the way back up, it works but it just bugs me, (sorry not tht tech sav, but i think its called a return spring or pad tht is broken and thts why its not popping back up) but if i buy/ replace a palm rest assembly will this fix the problem or can i just pull the palm rest off and replace the return spring? Thanks sorry if this was totally confusing. =)

Well, yes, in theory buying a new palm-rest would alleviate the problem (I've done it many times) but you would have to take the computer apart and install it which the average consumer wouldn't want to do or know how to do. You seem more tech savvy than most of the other people on here (considering you know what a palm-rest is) so if you can do it then I would certainly recommend it.
