I want to add a fingerprint scanner to my Elitebook 850 G8

[ms850g8]

Hello, 

I've had several HP notebooks over the years, but just joined this forum and am a new poster.

I just got a really good deal on an almost-new Elitebook 850 G8. It doesn't have a fingerprint scanner, and I want to know if I can buy the hardware and add one. I can't find the part numbers for the sensor and cable, and don't know if I need anything else.

Thanks for any help.

Hi,

Is the opening present on the top cover near keyboard?

You will need

Fingerprint reader board  part number M07206-001

Fingerprint reader board cable  part number M05255-001 Fingerprint reader board bracket part number  M05264-001

You should check if the actual slot is available on motherboard to connect the fingerprint module

On page 45 of service manual you can see the steps to install the board.
