Keyboard and trackpad don't work, loose cable?
My keyboard and trackpad have now completely stopped working. Before, they would work occasionally, and if it wasn't working I'd just reboot and kind of press on the bottom of the laptop and they would work, but that is no longer working.
The power key is the only one still responding, so I've been using a USB keyboard and mouse, but that isn't exactly practical to bring to classes.
My assumption is that it's a loose cable, as I was told by the Genius bar that the keyboard and trackpad are controlled by the same cable (they told me my laptop was scrapped and I needed to purchase a whole new one...how about no?).
Does anyone have any ideas or advice? What does the cable for the trackpad/keyboard look like so I can open up the bottom and see if it's loose?
Thanks!

so, i have this problem, and i would open up my computer every day, move everything around, just to push the cable back in. ive gone through multiple cables and i think the issue is in the bracket, i think mine has too much wiggle room. next time im gonna put something between the bracket and the cable.

so if the trackpad cable is damaged, the keyboard will not function at all either ,? i have noticed the cable looks damaged for the trackpad hoping that will solve my issue/s no keyboard no trackpad. MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020) everything else working as normal,
