Introduzione
Before starting this replacement, make sure you've read the troubleshooting guide to verify that the touchpad needs to be replaced. There are fragile ribbon connectors being removed in this guide, so proceed with caution!

Use the iFixit opening tools or a metal spudger to pry the rubber covers off the back of your Pixelbook.
-
Peel the linings off completely until the back of the Pixelbook looks bare.

Remove the seventeen 3.0mm T5 Torx screws from the bottom panel.
Just a heads up on “Step 3”: (not sure if maybe mine is a newer model since I just got it about a week ago) But there are only 15 of the T5 Screws on mine… Not 17. There are only 2, instead of 4, screws at the top of the picture (located at the hinge) showing the back where they are all circled.
I had the same experience as Jeff.

Remove the yellow 2.0mm screw from the middle of the panel by using the T3 Torx screwdriver to turn the screw counterclockwise.
For me, these were T4 and not T3 screws (everything labelled T3 was a T4 for me).

Remove the small, black casing by using the spudger to lift it up from its place.
Does anyone know if I can get the cable shown in this image as its own part? It is the only thing wrong with my machine and I don't want to fork out £70 for an entire new battery and cable.

Once the back panel is out of the way, use the T3 Torx screwdriver to turn both the 2.0mm and large 3.0mm gold screws from the touchpad.
ebay… I bought one for $29

Hello, I followed this guide and no the pixelbook will no longer power on. I reassembled exactly as described here. No light is coming on when I plu in the official charger, have tried other chargers as well. Any suggestions? I’ve been holding refresh + power and ESC but no change. Thanks…
What I read after the fact is that if you don’t do a full power off (hold refresh and power for 5 seconds until it is completely off) then the process here could short the motherboard. Which in my case it did. And I really wish these instructions had included something about that.
Ah I see! I just performed it last night actually, I did a regular shutdown via the “shutdown” button in the settings, everything went just fine luckily. Check out the corrosion that was causing my issue! http://imgur.com/gallery/cCfuGh2
In my settings under "devices" I didn't even have an option named “trackpad" - and that would be why,
After using the spurger to start lifting the rubber like cover at a corner, a two inch wide paint scrapper proved to be an easy way to continue. Using the scrapper at roughly a 30 degree angle (with respect to the laptop rectangle) allowed progressive lifting of the cover. Ripping of the cover tended to occur if only the narrow spurger was used.

The narrow rubber foot at the base of the display is supported by bendable metal. Be careful how evenly you remove it as uneven motions will result in a more bent and harder to re-apply piece.
