Introduction

Use this guide to replace a broken touch pad in an HP Envy x360 15-bp143cl. The laptop is also identified by its model number, 3TS71UAR#ABA.

A broken touch pad will be unresponsive and will not allow a user to move the cursor without an external mouse. If this is the case, the touch pad will need to be replaced.

Before using this replacement guide, review the HP Envy x360 15-bp143cl Touch pad Troubleshooting page to make sure the touch pad is not disabled. You can use this page to check if any other factor is causing the touch pad not to respond.

Turn the laptop off and disconnect it from any power supply before starting the replacement process.

Wear the Anti-Static Wrist Strap before working near the motherboard to prevent any damage.
