Is it possible to replace the Touch ID sensor? (MBP 2020) 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.
