Any 3rd party magic mouse repair?

[bpay14]

my magic mouse is over warranty..
the mouse cursor wont move..
but i still able to perform all the clicking, scrolling using the mouse..
so i guess is the hardware infra red sensor spoiled.
any idea is there any 3rd party service center to repair or change the faulty part of it?

Not that I know of. You could try Apple Service center. Frankly, I threw mine away after 6 months when I got it with my iMac. It's horrible. Dirt gets trapped in the scroll ball on top, which jams it, and then the tracking goes haywire.

Seems the reviews are full of this complain since the mouse got released over 5 years ago. I'm surprised Apple never fixed it. Anyway, I like the mouse.

I have been using my Magic Mouse for 2 years going 3. Works fine.

It's hard to repair the mouse. Enclosed in aluminum
