My scroll wheel has stopped working completely. Could I fix it myself? How hard is it fix it?

 

Thanks.

Get it RMA'ed. It's the best option I could come up with. Try another mouse to see if the scrolling funcitonality on your PC is still working.

 

Well I bought the mouse 2 years. Warranty is out. :/ I'm using a wireless mouse and it works fine..

Well I hate to break the bad news but even I couldn't find an entry point to open up the mouse. I'm also an owner of both the wired and wireless variant. Maybe the sensor picked up dust or basically died somehow. 

They could be underneath the 2 contact pads (googling it would be the best) . Grab yourself a small-sized (don't know how small yet) Phillips-head screwdriver.

I saw a video on how to fix it. :) Thanks for the help. :D
