Finally replaced my swollen original battery, and now I am getting a loss of touch haptics for like 5-10 seconds at a time...a few times an hour. I am finding this is due to debris between the trackpad and the frame. It just so happens that the battery was not aligned properly the first time and one of the adhesive strips in the middle has fully grabbed so I had to pry the battery up and may have gotten some adhesive in there.

Is the thin black panel between the battery and the trackpad the so-called 'frame'? I thought this was just flat adhesion point for the battery and separator. What else could be going on here?
