This guide will show you how to replace the righthand I/O board in the Lenovo Yoga 900 13” laptop computer (900-13ISK). The righthand daughterboard contains the power button, auxiliary port, and right-side USB port, so if any of these components start to experience issues, a righthand daughterboard replacement will likely solve the problem.
Note that the right side daughterboard contains the ports on the right side of the computer when viewed from the keyboard side, so it will be on the left side of the computer when viewed from the open bottom panel. If you were actually looking for the left side daughterboard guide, it can be found here.
This daughterboard also houses the cable connection to the speakers, so if the board itself is damaged, it may cause some sound issues with the computer. Speaker issues experienced after water exposure to the right side of the laptop may be alleviated by replacing this daughterboard, especially if new speakers do not help to solve the problem.
Be sure to unplug and completely turn off your device before you start working.
