Default Trackball will roll fine, won't click

Please Login to Remove!

My trackball has suddenly stopped "clicking" - it rolls fine in all directions but will only click if you press it in REALLY hard.

Is there anything that can be done, or it a back to the shop jobby?

Thanks,
Ed Ludlow

You can probably open your curve (not completely, just remove the trackball) and adjust the contact plate on the bottom of the trackball. Loosen it a bit away from the trackball, and it should be OK.

Maybe something like this link.

Just don't disassemble it, because there is no need to.

Did you try a battery pull first? It would be a REALLY bad idea to open your curve without trying something so simple and basic as the pull.'

I did have this issue over the weekend, it was fixed with a battery pull
