Where's the part number on the Acer Nitro 5 touchpad?

ACER NITRO 5 AN515-52
So I had spillage some time ago, and lost the clicking functions of the touchpad, though tap still works fine. I recently ordered a touchpad and (which came complete on the top panel with a keyboard) to resolve this.

After installing, the keyboard worked fine, but I discovered that the new touchpad wouldn't work at all, unless I switched its functionality to basic in BIOS. I then observed some differences in the PCBs on the back of both. Mines a Synaptics, but the new one shows no indication of its brand, though I know Elantech also make touchpads for this machine. I also can't find the part number on either part to cross check them against each other and what was advertised.

Long story, but if anyone can tell me how to find the correct part numbers on these trackpads, I'd be most grateful. The seller advertised 6B.Q3MN2.011. Elsewhere, I've found a synaptics touchpad advertised with part number 56.Q2UN2.002.

Some pictures are shown below. The first two pictures are of my own touchpad, and the second two are of the one I bought.

Many thanks!

Hello,

The touch pad is sold separately for this series and not with the keyboard. Here are the Acer part numbers:

56.Q3JN2.001 - TOUCH PAD ASSY BLACK-ELANTECH
56.Q3JN2.002 - TOUCH PAD ASSY BLACK-SYNAPTICS

Hi,

Thanks for your response. I bought this second hand from eBay. I preferred this, because I didn't want to touch the touchpad assembly at all. It appears I got the wrong one, but I can't find the part number anywhere on the ether part to cross match the one I bought with mine. I'm looking on the back of the touchpad assembly, as per the photos I attached.

Cheers
