Introduction

Important service information

Important

BIOS and device driver fixes are customer-installable. The BIOS and device drivers are posted on the IBM support site

http://www.ibm.com/pc/support

Advise customers to contact the IBM Support Center at 800-426-7378 (800-IBM-Serv) if they need assistance in obtaining or installing any diskette fixes.

Customers in Canada should call IBM Support Center at 800-565-3344 for assistance or download information.

Strategy for replacing FRUs

Before replacing parts

Make sure that all diskette fixes are installed before replacing any FRUs listed in this manual.

Use the following strategy to prevent unnecessary expense for replacing and servicing FRUs:

you are instructed to replace a FRU but the replacement does not correct the problem, reinstall the original FRU before you continue.

Some computers have both a processor board and a system board. If you are instructed to replace either the processor board or the system board, and replacing one

them does not correct the problem, reinstall that

board, and then replace the other one.

adapter or a device consists of more than one FRU, any of the FRUs may be the cause of the error. Before replacing the adapter or device, remove the FRUs, one by one, to see if the symptoms change. Replace only the FRU that changed the symptoms.

Attention: The setup configuration on the computer you

are servicing may have been customized. Running Automatic Configuration may alter the settings. Note the current configuration settings (using the View Configuration option); then, when service has been completed, verify that those settings remain in effect.

Important service information

Strategy for replacing a hard disk drive

Always try to run a low-level format before replacing a hard disk drive.

Attention: The drive startup sequence in the computer

you are servicing may have been changed. Be extremely careful during write operations such as copying, saving, or formatting. If you select an incorrect drive, data or programs can be overwritten.

How to use error messages

Use the error codes displayed on the screen to diagnose failures. If more than one error code is displayed, begin the diagnosis with the first error code. Whatever causes the first error code may also cause false error codes. If no error code is displayed, see whether the error symptom is listed in the Symptom-to-FRU Index for the computer you are servicing.

Safety notice 7

DANGER

Though the main batteries have low voltage, a shorted or grounded battery can produce enough current to burn personnel or combustible materials.

Bien que le voltage des batteries principales soit peu élevé, le court-circuit ou la mise à la masse d’une batterie peut produire suffisamment de courant pour brûler des matériaux combustibles ou causer des brûlures corporelles graves.

Obwohl Hauptbatterien eine niedrige Spannung haben, können sie doch bei Kurzschluß oder Erdung genug Strom abgeben, um brennbare Materialien zu entzünden oder Verletzungen bei Personen hervorzurufen.

Sebbene le batterie di alimentazione siano a basso voltaggio, una batteria in corto circuito o a massa può fornire corrente sufficiente da bruciare materiali combustibili o provocare ustioni ai tecnici

manutenzione.

Aunque las baterías principales tienen un voltaje bajo, una batería cortocircuitada o con contacto a tierra puede producir la corriente suficiente como para quemar material combustible o provocar quemaduras en el personal.

Safety information

The following section presents safety information with which you need to be familiar before you service an IBM mobile computer.

General safety

Follow these rules to ensure general safety:

Observe good housekeeping in the area of the machines during and after maintenance.

When lifting any heavy object:

Make sure that you can stand safely without slipping.

Distribute the weight of the object equally between your feet.

Use a slow lifting force. Never move suddenly or twist when you attempt to lift.

Lift by standing or by pushing up with your leg muscles; this action removes the strain from the muscles in your back. Do not attempt to lift any

object that weighs more than 16 kg (35 lb) or that you think is too heavy for you.

not perform any action that causes hazards to the

customer, or that makes the equipment unsafe.

Before you start the machine, make sure that other service representatives and the customer’s personnel are not in a hazardous position.

Place removed covers and other parts in a safe place, away from all personnel, while you are servicing the machine.

Keep your toolcase away from walk areas so that other people will not trip over it.

not wear loose clothing that can be trapped in the moving parts of a machine. Make sure that your sleeves are fastened or rolled up above your elbows. If your hair

long, fasten it.

Insert the ends of your necktie or scarf inside clothing or fasten it with a nonconductive clip, about 8 centimeters

inches) from the end.

not wear jewelry, chains, metal-frame eyeglasses, or metal fasteners for your clothing.

Attention: Metal objects are good electrical

conductors.

Wear safety glasses when you are hammering, drilling, soldering, cutting wire, attaching springs, using solvents,

working in any other conditions that might be

hazardous to your eyes.

Safety information

After service, reinstall all safety shields, guards, labels, and ground wires. Replace any safety device that is worn or defective.

Reinstall all covers correctly before returning the machine to the customer.

Fan louvers on the machine help to prevent overheating

internal components. Do not obstruct fan louvers or

cover them with labels or stickers.

WARNING

Handling the cord on this product or cords associated with accessories sold with this product will expose you to lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, and birth defects

other reproductive harm. Wash hands after

handling.

Electrical safety

Observe the following rules when working on electrical equipment.

Important

Use only approved tools and test equipment. Some hand tools have handles covered with a soft material that does not insulate you when working with live electrical currents.

Many customers have, near their equipment, rubber floor mats that contain small conductive fibers to decrease electrostatic discharges. Do not use this type of mat to protect yourself from electrical shock.

Find the room emergency power-off (EPO) switch, disconnecting switch, or electrical outlet. If an electrical accident occurs, you can then operate the switch or unplug the power cord quickly.

not work alone under hazardous conditions or near

equipment that has hazardous voltages.

Disconnect all power before:

Performing a mechanical inspection Working near power supplies Removing or installing main units

Before you start to work on the machine, unplug the

power cord. If you cannot unplug it, ask the customer to power-off the wall box that supplies power to the machine, and to lock the wall box in the off position.

you need to work on a machine that has exposed

electrical circuits, observe the following precautions:

Safety information

–

Ensure that another person, familiar with the power-off controls, is near you.

Attention: Another person must be there to switch

off the power, if necessary. Use only one hand when working with powered-on electrical equipment; keep the other hand in your pocket or behind your back.

Attention: An electrical shock can occur only when

there is a complete circuit. By observing the above rule, you may prevent a current from passing through your body. When using testers, set the controls correctly and use the approved probe leads and accessories for that tester. Stand on suitable rubber mats (obtained locally, if necessary) to insulate you from grounds such as metal floor strips and machine frames.

Observe

the special safety precautions when you work with very high voltages; Instructions for these precautions are in the safety sections of maintenance information. Use extreme care when measuring high voltages.

Regularly inspect and maintain your electrical hand tools for safe operational condition.

not use worn or broken tools and testers.

Never assume that power has been disconnected from

circuit. First, check that it has been powered off.

Always look carefully for possible hazards in your work area. Examples of these hazards are moist floors, nongrounded power extension cables, power surges, and missing safety grounds.

not touch live electrical circuits with the reflective surface of a plastic dental mirror. The surface is conductive; such touching can cause personal injury and machine damage.

not service the following parts with the power on when they are removed from their normal operating places in a machine:

Power supply units Pumps Blowers and fans Motor generators

similar units. (This practice ensures correct

and grounding of the units.)

Safety information

Safety inspection guide

The purpose of this inspection guide is to assist you in identifying potentially unsafe conditions. As each machine was designed and built, required safety items were installed to protect users and service personnel from injury. This guide addresses only those items. You should use good judgment to identify potential safety hazards due to attachment of non-IBM features or options not covered by this inspection guide.

any unsafe conditions are present, you must determine how serious the apparent hazard could be and whether you can continue without first correcting the problem.

Consider these conditions and the safety hazards they present:

Electrical hazards, especially primary power (primary voltage on the frame can cause serious or fatal electrical shock)

Explosive hazards, such as a damaged CRT face or a bulging capacitor

Mechanical hazards, such as loose or missing hardware

determine whether there are any potentially unsafe

To conditions, use the following checklist at the beginning of every service task. Begin the checks with the power off, and the power cord disconnected.

Checklist:

Check exterior covers for damage (loose, broken, or sharp edges).

Power off the computer. Disconnect the power cord.

Check the power cord for:

third-wire ground connector in good condition. Use a meter to measure third-wire ground continuity for 0.1 ohm or less between the external ground pin and the frame ground.

The power cord should be the type specified in the parts list.

Insulation must not be frayed or worn.

Remove the cover.

Check for any obvious non-IBM alterations. Use good judgment as to the safety of any non-IBM alterations.

Check inside the unit for any obvious unsafe conditions, such as metal filings, contamination, water

other liquids, or signs of fire or smoke damage.

Check for worn, frayed, or pinched cables.

Safety information

Check that the power-supply cover fasteners (screws

rivets) have not been removed or tampered with.

Handling devices that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge

Any computer part containing transistors or integrated circuits (ICs) should be considered sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD.) ESD damage can occur when there is a difference in charge between objects. Protect against ESD damage by equalizing the charge so that the machine, the part, the work mat, and the person handling the part are all

the same charge.

Notes

Use product-specific ESD procedures when they exceed the requirements noted here. Make sure that the ESD protective devices you use have been certified (ISO 9000) as fully effective.

When handling ESD-sensitive parts:

Keep the parts in protective packages until they are inserted into the product.

Avoid contact with other people.

Wear a grounded wrist strap against your skin to eliminate static on your body.

Prevent the part from touching your clothing. Most clothing is insulative and retains a charge even when you are wearing a wrist strap.

Use the black side of a grounded work mat to provide a static-free work surface. The mat is especially useful when handling ESD-sensitive devices.

Select a grounding system, such as those listed below,

provide protection that meets the specific service

requirement.

Note

The use of a grounding system to guard against ESD damage is desirable but not necessary.

–

Attach the ESD ground clip to any frame ground, ground braid, or green-wire ground.

When working on a double-insulated or battery-operated system, use an ESD common ground or reference point. You can use coax or connector-outside shells on these systems.

Safety information

–

Use the round ground prong of the ac plug on ac-operated computers.

Grounding requirements

Electrical grounding of the computer is required for operator safety and correct system function. Proper grounding of the electrical outlet can be verified by a certified electrician.
