Einleitung

This simple repair guide will aid you in taking apart your IBM ThinkPad T41 laptop to reach and replace its keyboard.

  1. BvJXL3bwuZDlJgxo

    • Close the screen and turn the closed laptop over.

    • Remove all 17 screws on the bottom of the computer.

    • The multiple colors (turquoise, red, blue, orange, yellow, and purple) are for organizational purposes, indicating different screws.

    • The yellow marker at the rear denotes the UltraBay device retaining screw. This screw is optional as the UltraBay mechanism will hold the drive or battery in place anyway. The yellow marker at the front denotes the hard disk caddy retaining screw.

    You need to remove the battery, hard drive, and UltraDrive before starting step 1.
