Introduction: Middle Mouse Button Click Not Working
Hey
I had a problem with my Logitec RX 250. The middle button click did not work every time I click it. So I decided to replace that faulty switch.
Step 1: Tools Required:
Tools required:
Soldering iron
Desoldering pump (I did it without but it is easier when you have it)
Philips screwdriver
Step 2: Mouse Disassembly
Unplug mouse.
Remove gliding pads to reveal all screws. Remove screws.
Remove the top side of the mouse. Then remove the board from the bottom of the mouse.
Step 3: Removing the Switch
I decided to use one of the other switches that are on the board as I did not use it at all and replace that faulty one so I don't have to buy a new one.
I removed with the help of the soldering iron the switch from the mouse middle button click (to the right) and middle button click (middle - I use it for opening links in a new tab and closing tabs). You can buy the switch that you need in stores or online.
Then remove the rest of the solder with desoldering pump.
Be careful with soldering because soldering plate copper can be really fragile and with removing the switch and when you are putting it back you can break that contacts.
Step 4: Soldering the Switch Back
Then replace the faulty switch with the functioning one and solder it and try it out :)
For me, it worked like a charm :D
Good luck :)
