Fingerprint sensor is optional. Did you buy this option for your machine ? You can buy parts and install yourself using

 

  • Fingerprint reader assembly (includes cable) part #  L62741-001
  • NOTE:The fingerprint reader bracket is included in the Bracket Kit, spare part number L62737-001.

I did some digging and found it was just a plastic cap for covering the hole. Slightly mad that it looks so convincing with no indication its a cap but eh, cant be too mad.

 

I went ahead and got an 840 G5 fingerprint scanner on eBay since the part has been discontinued  by hp. When the part comes hopefully it's just plug and play.

 

Thanks again Banhien!
