MacBook Air 15" M2 (2023) Power Button / Touch ID Replacement

MacBook Air 15" M2 (2023) Power Button / Touch ID Replacement Description
On the MacBook Air 15-inch M2 the power button is also the Touch ID sensor, in the top-right corner of the keyboard. If the button is stuck, cracked or doesn't turn the Mac on, we replace it with a genuine Apple Touch ID button in your Mac's color. The Touch ID sensor is paired to your Mac's logic board. The new button brings back power on and off, and we try to pair it with Apple's Repair Assistant so Touch ID works too, but pairing isn't always possible outside Apple. If it can't be paired, you sign in with your password or an Apple Watch. If the button works but just feels mushy, the cause may be its cable, which is a smaller repair, and we'll tell you first.

Symptoms this repair should fix:

• Power button stuck, loose or cracked
• Mac won't power on from the button
• Touch ID doesn't recognize your finger
• Button feels mushy or doesn't click

Find Out Which Mac You Have

The MacBook Air 15" M2 (2023) is Apple's 15-inch MacBook Air with the Apple M2 chip, released in 2023. Its model number is A2941. It comes in Silver, Space Gray, Starlight and Midnight, has a flat body of even thickness, a 15.3-inch screen with a notch at the top, a MagSafe port and two USB-C ports on the left and a headphone jack on the right.

Option 1: Check About This Mac
If your Mac turns on, choose Apple menu > About This Mac. It should say MacBook Air (15-inch, M2, 2023) and Chip: Apple M2.

Option 2: Mac won't turn on?
Turn it over: the model number (A2941) is printed in small text on the bottom case. You can also bring it to our shop and we'll identify it for you.

Is it the 13-inch M2 instead?
The 13-inch M2 MacBook Air (2022) looks the same but is smaller: a 13.6-inch screen, about 12 inches wide instead of 13.4, and model number A2681 on the bottom case. Its parts are different, so see our MacBook Air 13" M2 (2022) repairs.

Looks the same but says A3114, A3241 or A3448?
Those are the 15-inch MacBook Air with the M3 (2024), M4 (2025) and M5 (2026) chips. The M3 looks almost identical to the M2; the M4 and M5 come in Sky Blue instead of Space Gray and have a Center Stage camera. Some parts differ, so call or text us for a quote.

If your Mac isn't a MacBook Air 15" M2 (2023), see our Mac repair page or call or text us at (949) 903-6452 and we'll help you figure it out.
