Einleitung

This guide will take you through the steps of replacing the Wi-Fi Card on a Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga 2nd Generation.

    • Use a Phillips #0 screwdriver to remove the eight 8 mm screws.

    More pricesely, screws need to be unscrewed, but not removed, since they stay attached to the back cover. Trying to remove them may damage the small gaskets around the screw shaft.
