Replacement Power Button for MacBook Air M2

This part replaces the power button and Touch ID sensor on MacBook Air M2 models A2681 (13.6 inch, 2022) and A2941 (15.3 inch, 2023). It matches part number 821-04012-A. The package contains one button assembly. It is intended for owners of these specific laptops who need to fix a broken power button.

Touch ID function lost after replacement

Because Touch ID is cryptographically bound to the motherboard, the fingerprint sensor will not work after this button is installed. Only the power on and off function remains operational. Buyers who need fingerprint unlock or Apple Pay authentication should not use this part. The limitation is a hardware binding, not a driver issue.

Professional installation strongly recommended

The supplier notes that disassembly and reassembly require hands-on skill and advises professional fitting. Verify your exact model number (A2681 or A2941) and year (2022 or 2023) before ordering. Ensure you accept the loss of Touch ID functionality. No tools or adhesive are included in the pack.
