Compatible Latitude Models
This palmrest assembly fits Dell Latitude 5490, 5491 and 5495 laptops that were built without a smart-card reader. It restores the original dual-point input layout for users who rely on both the centre stick and two sets of mouse buttons.
Installation Notes
The part arrives as a complete palmrest with touchpad module T68VF and mouse-button board A169B1 already fitted. Installers must disconnect the battery and remove the keyboard before swapping the assembly; the only common issue is forgetting to reconnect the ribbon cables for both button rows.
Dual-Point Requirement
This unit works only on systems equipped with the dual-pointing keyboard setup that provides a centre stick and buttons above and below the touchpad. It will not fit laptops that have a smart-card reader or a single-point touchpad configuration.
