But my mouse was designed in a way where it would be very complicated to get to the underside of the board to unsolder the old switch and resolder a new one. Note: I had actually ordered a replacement switch (as one commenter recommended). Also I accidentally bent the main frame and I had to unbend it, but end result was a slight bend, which actually was what was needed to stiffen the whole thing and now it is clicking nice and crisp. The curved flange is meant to push tightly up against the brace to provide the force behind the clickiness.
ONE CLICK FIX DRIVER
Go in sideways with a jewellers screw driver or toothpick to reshape the curved flange so it butts up taut against the braces. I'd say instead of taking it out of the braces, try to reshape it in place because trying to hook it back in is hard. Reshaping the copper piece is very fiddly and getting the shape right is also challenging.
ONE CLICK FIX PROFESSIONAL
I just repaired my 9 year old Logitech MX Professional mouse with the help of this guide, thanks! I will add some tips: When you pop off the cover of the switch, take a few close up photos of the mechanism for reference so you know how its meant to look when you reassemble it back again. I hope you now have a mouse that clicks properly. Regular elmers glue stick has worked for me, or a dab of superglue would certainly do the trick. If there is not enough adhesive left to keep the slide pads on, you can add some more. If all seems well, than go ahead and put the mouse top back in place, reinstall the 4 main screws, and put the slide pads back in place. If you are not hearing and feeling a difference, you may need to open the mechanism back up and try retentioning the spring again. You should notice that it is making a crisp click sound when pressed, and that it now springs back with more force than it did before. At this point, before reassembling the mouse, set it down on the table, and give the tiny white button a few test clicks. Doing it this way will insure that the tiny white button stays in place while the mechanism is put back together. With the other hand, pick up the mouse body, turn it upside down, and push the cover back into place. With one hand, pick up the cover while keeping it upside down so the button stays in place.
The easiest way to do this is by dropping or placing it into the cover with a pair of tweezers. First reinstall the tiny white button into the mechanism cover (you did remember to find and set aside the tiny button right?). Next, you will need to reassemble the click mechanism. I would advise that you read through some of the comments for various approaches to completing that part of the repair. Good luck with your repair, I hope this helps.ĮDIT: There are quite a few comments about the difficulty of step 8. I imagine at some point the piece causing the problem will break, at which time the mouse will need to be replaced (unless you're determined enough to try and source parts). Each time the repair lasts about 6 months to a year before needing to be redone. I have now performed this fix for the third time and decided to take pictures this time to share with others who may find this useful. There are some very small parts involved, so you will want to make sure you ware working in a well lit, clean environment so that any parts that are dropped can be easily found. Sure enough, It's a pretty simple fix, if you have some common tools and a teaspoon (edit:a tablespoon) of patience. So, being the tinkerer that I am, I decided to open her up and see if it could be repaired. As can be imagined, this gets frustrating very fast.
I have a Logitech wireless laser mouse and after a year or so of use, the left click button would double click every time I tried to single click something.
