Okay my macbook was 5 months. And last day, my macbook's trackpad click was unresponsive so I googled my issue. And found this solution. (Before that I tried ifixit and opened my upper case, lol don't suggest that for you. I have almost get the cable disconnected forever.)

 

For Macbook:

Step #1 - Cut a piece of paper about 1/8 of an inch wide, and 4 inches in lenth.

 

 

Step #2 - If you want to be creative, take this piece of paper and follow these steps to make an Origami Paper Star (Link For Origami Star). Make sure to skip the last step. Alternatively, just fold the piece of paper in a square.

 

 

Step #3 - Unlock the battery with a coin, and remove it.

Step #4 - Place your Origami Star or square in the middle, as you see illustrated in the picture. Make sure it’s as centered as much as possible, and carefully put the battery back in and lock it.

Now, go test out your trackpad button. You should have a nice crisp click, almost anywhere you click. It should feel very responsive.

 

For Macbook Pro's:

It’s not software related, but due to this ribbon cable being curled/bent.

So put a paper like that:

And now try it should work.
