my dude is back with a new vid! Thanks man, I'm fixing one of these myself. The top 3 pads are DEAD, and they don't sell the sensor pad anymore. I found a video on cutting slits into the dead sensors to let air back in, hoping to finally attempt it this weekend.
Incredible useful. I'm in awe of the utility of the mighty spudger. I got mine from ifixit.com. It came with an iphone battery repair kit. I call it a spudger in the video, but it turns out a different tool is referred to as a spudger. The one I used is called the "Opening Tool" www.ifixit.com/products/ifixit-opening-tool

hope it worked. My right directional pad is wonky and I want to try slicing the sensor.
Nice work! I gotta get one of those spudger tools for the ribbon cables.
