Awesome, what a bizarre design. All I wanted to do was upgrade the memory and couldn’t figure out where the hell the other stick was. I have a T420 A side note for anyone doing initial tear down. Be careful when you cut the cover behind the battery to gain access to those 2 screws( in the video his was already missing) there is a ribbon under there that drives the monitor, you could easily cut it if not careful.
Handy site as i have 3 lenovo T410 and another one on the way for parts. i buy old Lenovo T410s that boot to bios but have fan error and sold for parts. The last one i bought booted to bios and never showed a fan error when i got it and i put one of my Linux mint 20.1 cloned SSD drives in it and i found nothing wrong it works absolutely fine. i am using it to do this post. i just love incompetent computer repair techs. The fan only takes 20 to 30 min to replace and i have a new old stock spare. you do know there are two types of T410s and they take different parts and look different inside
Our Lenovo T410 won't charge anymore? I believe the charging cord got yanked a few times trying to move the computer while it was plugged in? And ideas what it might be? The yellow charging port seems solid on the laptop. Is it possible the little center plug could have broke in the charging line? Is that possible? I can't figure it out. I plugged it in and moved it all around the best I could, and I got the green charging light to come on for a few seconds, and that was it. Can't make anything happen now. I'm not sure what might have went wrong? Any ideas?
Hello I tried to disassembly the whole cover but I ended up with one hidden screw at the right front side in the lower region. In other videos they said that its behind the sticker at the back, I removed them all, nothing.. It's the last screw to be able to lift up the whole rest after you already removed the keyboard. Please help me:)
so what is not shown in this video is at 2:42 the screw just to the left of the RAM slot is now removed, this needs to be removed so you can take out the keyboard.
Hello, My T410 does not turn on, thanks to your video while I was experimenting I discoverd that it could only turn on when I kept pushing hard on under the alt button. When I leave it free it turns off immediately. You got any idea whats going on? Thanks in advance
I did it yesterday - Hell job! Sadist Engineers design this so you damage the machine when trying that must be GULAGs assembling those machines... with too many tricks to make it almost impossible - ... dis gusting idle temperature now down by 10 deg Celsius irreversible heart damage for me...
No audio explanation, just turbo mode disassembly, hard to follow, not warning about possible damages made during the exercise. No recording of screw size and what was their original position, so when assembling, god knows which screw went into which hole :(
