MacBook Pro - Late 2016. Keyboard and trackpad not working

Hi all,


My MacBook's keyboard and trackpad simultaneously stopped working, I tried all the software procedures to no success. I then took it in to the genius bar and they said the logic board and bottom case has corrosion issues, out of curiosity I opened it up and found no corrosion, except for a couple of pins on the trackpad flex cable. Could this cable be the root of all my problems? Or is it more likely a serious issue.


Thanks in advance,


Will

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.6

UPDATE: Trackpad flex cable was the root of all the problems. Once replaced the keyboard and trackpad works.
