13-дюймовый MacBook Pro, выпущенный в мае 2020 года, оснащен четырехъядерными процессорами Intel 10-го поколения Core i5 и i7 и интегрированной графикой Intel Iris Plus. (Модель A2251/EMC3348 с четырьмя портами Thunderbolt 3)

Is it possible to replace the Touch ID sensor?

So I was taking apart my 2020 MacBook Pro to replace the thermal paste and clean the insides when I accidentally ripped the flex cable for the Power Button/Touch ID sensor.

I've been researching this for the last five days, and it seems these sensors are paired to the motherboard and cannot simply be swapped out. Since I live in Brazil, the official repair cost is absurdly high, around $800 USD. Apple Support here won't repair just the sensor, they only offer a full motherboard replacement to get a new paired sensor. Not even including a full top case replacement… just the motherboard and the sensor. Period.

That being said, is there any known way to restore Touch ID on my MacBook without replacing the entire board? I’m going to Florida next month and wanted to know about prices and if such repair is even possible.

I would check out and try appel's self service repair. I believe you can buy and pair their original home button to your logic board. - I don't think it is available in Brazil though
Outside of that, unfortunately there is nothing in the market yet.

You can just use a any compatible replacement button, and it will work as the power button, but no fingerprint functionality.

Oh okay, but if I take it to the Apple Store, would they fix and replace JUST the sensor? Because the motherboard is fully functional…

Sorry, the TouchID button is married to your logic board. If you enabled TouchID your data is now locked away and with a broken Button means your board is now locked out.

There are some non-ID buttons you can buy to replace yours but you can't use TouchID and can't protect your data.

You can always find an expert micro soldering technician to reconnect the broken Touch ID flex cable.

Apple does not provide self-service repair for this model, no manual, no parts.

Replacement isn’t possible without Apple’s tools. Cheapest option: Apple Store in the US for sensor + board swap.
