Hi there, my MX Vertical isn’t moving the cursor anymore.. However, the buttons still work (e.g., left/right click, wheel, fwd/back, etc.). Does anyone know of a way to repair this? Is the optical sensor easy to replace? Could this perhaps just come loose? Any experience with this issue would be greatly appreciated as I haven’t seen anything pertaining to this particular mouse. TIA
Found this video, it’s in Vietnamese but it helped me open the mouse and fix that cursor issue. turns out the lens connector was loose Good luck! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09ffN9M6…
So I figured it out. Thanks to that video provided by @justicegoat I was reassured that this device could be opened safely without breaking it, i.e., no glue. I opened it up and noticed that the sensor was just loose and was no longer pointing to where it should be. Unfortunately the anti-stick strips couldn’t be salvaged. It was easy to clip it back in place. I had dropped this mouse from my desk enough that it must’ve dislodged from its clipped home. Oops. Great mouse, though. See images.
I followed @l3fl3r instructions. Thanks! Also, by being careful, I managed to remove the anti-stick strips/skate/feet and put them back after.
I don’t think you can replace the optical sensor since most mouses have it soldered on the mainboard.
