So I got an Acer Aspire C27-962 in November last year and I noticed the fan was overheating. I opened up the PC and cleaned up the fan. 
So when I sealed the PC back up I noticed on the right side of the PC ( not the screen) that a light was coming out when the PC was on. I tried unscrewing it and pushing it in but it just pops back up. I don't know if I snapped something or if I didn't push it in right

    Can you show us some pictures of that area with the light showing?

    Yes, it looks like you didn't get that latch in place when you slid to top cover down. I think that is backlight bleed from the display, since there are no lights in that area otherwise. When you assemble that cover you want to make sure all the latches are seated before sliding the cover down to allow the screws to engage.

    Sorry for the very late response. I tried pushing it in as hard as I can and it still wont come in. I also tried doing it very slowly and steadily but still nothing. I don't know if the latch snapped or not.

    I'd just leave it alone, stick some tape over it if the light is bothersome, but it has no functional issues...
