Well You can try the following to fix the issue with your touchpad:

• Check for driver issues
• Disable Palm Check / Touchpad sensitivity
• Turn off “Enhance Pointer Precision”
• Check for Windows updates

Remove the base cover.  Is the battery intact or does it show signs of swelling?  If it's at all swollen, remove and dispose of it immediately and order a replacement.  The system will function on AC power without a battery until you can source a replacement.

thanks for the suggestions. Tried them all. No help unfortunately. If I clean the pad and my fingers with isopropyl alcohol it helps for awhile but then starts to stick and also the pressure corners don’t work either. It seems the touchpad is an issue. Out of warranty but was ok at first. Everything is up to date. No newer drivers etc. it’s a real pain. 

@ejn63​ don’t think it will be that.  There are no heat isssues. It runs nice and cool. 

@PCKid32​  Well you can consider the touchpad replacement if possible.
