Q: force touch trackpad not giving proper haptic feedback

Hi everyone,

 

          My trackpad's haptic feedback is not really working. You know when you click the force touch it simulates a really noticeable vibration like a real trackpad? Mine doesn't give that feedback. You barely feel the vibration, and I already checked the "Click - Light, Medium, Firm" option on the Trackpad settings and everything is normal. Any help on how I can get it back to normal is appreciated.

MacBook, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

    I have this issue on and off and, I agree, it's really annoying.  Here's what have worked for me so far:

     

          - H/W test at genius bar failed track pad.  Track pad replaced., Was OK for 31 days after that

         -  Genius bar re-calibrated trackpad , OK for about a week

         - Reset SMC - no change

         - Reset NVRAM  .. now better but still a different feel.

     

     

    If you are anywhere near an apple store, I'd suggest you take it in and ask them to hook it up to their test rig.

     

    I have another MBP that does not exhibit this issue and both were built from the same back-up so I'm pretty sure its not a driver issue of sorts.
