Important Notes
Only certified trained personnel should
service the computer.
Read the FRU Removal and Replacement
procedures before replacing any FRUs.
Be extremely careful during write operations
such as copying, saving, or formatting.
Drives in the computer that you are servicing
might have been rearranged, or the drive startup
sequence might have been altered. If you select
an incorrect drive, data or programs might be
overwritten.
Replace FRUs only for the correct model.
When you replace a FRU, make sure the model
of the machine and FRU part number are correct
by referring to the FRU parts list.
A FRU should not be replaced because of a
single, unreproducible failure. Single failures
can occur from a variety of reasons that have
nothing to do with a hardware defect, such as:
cosmic radiation, electrostatic discharge, or
software errors. FRU replacement should be
considered only when a recurring problem exists.
If this is suspected, clear the error log and run
the test again. Do not replace any FRUs if log
errors do not reappear.
Be careful not to replace a nondefective FRU.

Screw Tightening Information
Loose screws can cause a reliability problem. The IBM
ThinkPad computer addresses this problem with
nylon-coated screws. Tighten screws as follows:
Plastic to plastic
Turn an additional 90 degrees after the screw head
touches the surface of the plastic part:
Logic card to plastic
Turn an additional 180 degrees after the screw head
touches the surface of the logic card:
Torque driver
If you have a torque driver, refer to the “Torque”
instruction with each step.
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 caused the first error
code can result in false error codes being displayed. If no
error code is displayed, see if the error symptom is listed
in the “Symptom-to-FRU Index” on page 21.
Port Replicator Problems: If you suspect a
problem with the port replicator, see “Port Replicator
Checkout” on page 13.
How to Diagnose Multiple FRUs: When the
adapter or the device has more than one FRU, the error
code could be caused by any of them. Before replacing
multiple FRUs, try removing or exchanging each FRU, one
by one in the designated sequence, to see if the symptoms
change.

Card devices via a port replicator, suspect an over-current
problem. Some PC Card devices use more power; if the
maximum usage of each devices occurs simultaneously,
the total current will exceed the limit, thereby causing a
power shutdown. Isolate this problem by removing one of
the devices, and use the computer under the same
condition, and see whether a power shutdown occurs. Do
this procedure for all devices to determine the cause.
Power Systems Checkout
To verify the symptom of the problem, power on the
computer using each of the following power sources.
1. Remove the battery pack and the diskette drive.
2. Connect the AC Adapter and check that power is
supplied.
3. Disconnect the AC Adapter and install the charged
battery pack; then check that power is supplied by the
battery pack.
If you suspect a power problem, see the appropriate power
supply checkout in the following list:
14
“Checking the AC Adapter” on page 15
“Checking Operational Charging”
“Checking the Battery Pack” on page 16
“Checking the Backup Battery” on page 16
Checking the AC Adapter: You are here
because the computer fails only when the AC Adapter is
used:
If the power problem occurs only when the port
replicator is used, replace the port replicator.
If the power-on indicator does not turn on, check the
power cord of the AC Adapter for correct continuity
and installation.
If the operational charge does not work, go to
“Checking Operational Charging.”
1. Unplug the AC Adapter cable from the computer and
measure the output voltage at the plug of the AC
Adapter cable. See the following figure:
PinVoltage (V dc)
1+14.5 to +17.0
2Ground
If the voltage is not good, replace the AC Adapter.
If the voltage is within the range, do the following:
Replace the system board.
If the problem is not corrected, go to
“Undetermined Problems” on page 31.
Note: An audible noise from the AC Adapter does not
always indicate a defect.
Checking Operational Charging: To check
operational charging, use a discharged battery pack or a
battery pack that has less than 50% of the total power
remaining when installed in the computer.
Perform operational charging. If the battery status
indicator does not turn on, remove the battery pack and let
it return to room temperature. Reinstall the battery pack.
If the charge indicator still does not turn on, replace the
battery pack.
If the charge indicator still does not turn on, replace the
system board. Then reinstall the battery pack. If the
ThinkPad 560Z HMM15
reinstalled battery pack is not charged, go to the next
section.
Checking the Battery Pack: Battery charging will
not start until the Fuel-Gauge shows that less than 95% of
the total power remains; with this condition the battery
pack will charge to 100% of its capacity. This protects the
battery pack from being overcharged or having a
shortened life.
Do the following:
1. Power off the computer.
2. Remove the battery pack and measure the voltage
between battery terminals 1 (+) and 4 (−). See the
following figure:
3. If the voltage is less than +11.0 V dc, the battery pack
has been discharged. Recharge the battery pack.
Note: In this case, the battery pack is
over-discharged. It takes the at least 2 hours
to recharge the battery pack even if the
indicator does not turn on.
If the voltage is still less than +11.0 V dc after
recharging, replace the battery pack.
4. If the voltage is more than +11.0 V dc, measure the
resistance between battery pack terminals 3 and 4.
The resistance must be 4 to 30 K ohm.
If the resistance is not correct, replace the battery
pack. If the resistance is correct, replace the system
board.
Checking the Backup Battery
1. Power off the computer and unplug the AC Adapter
from the computer.
2. Turn the computer upside down.
3. Remove the backup battery (see “1010 Backup
Battery” on page 45).
4. Measure the voltage of the backup battery. See the
following figure.
Note: Be careful not to measure the wrong side of
the backup battery.
16
WireVoltage (V dc)
Red+2.5 to +3.7
BlackGround
If the voltage is correct, replace the system board.
If the voltage is not correct, replace the backup
battery.
If the backup battery discharges quickly after
replacement, replace the system board.
Status Indicator Checkout
If an LED problem occurs, do the following:
1. Power off the computer.
2. Power on the computer.
3. All the LEDs in the indicator panel, except the Hard
Disk In Use LED, should turn on for a moment soon
after the computer is powered on. Make sure they
turn on.
If the problems persists, replace the system board.
System Board and CPU Mini-Cartridge
Checkout
The system board and the CPU mini-cartridge FRUs
perform the operation on the computer. Processor
problems can be caused by either FRU. Generally, the
CPU mini-cartridge has a lower failure rate. If a numeric
code indicates the system board or the CPU mini-cartridge
as failing, do the following procedure to isolate the
problem:
1. Run the system board test to verify the symptom.
This test verifies both the system board and the CPU
mini-cartrige. If no error is detected, return to
“Undetermined Problems” on page 31.
Note: Do not touch the keyboard and the pointing
device when the system board is being tested.
This might cause unexpected errors.
2. If FRU code 10 appears, replace the system board,
but do not replace the CPU mini-cartrige. Transfer
ThinkPad 560Z HMM
17
the CPU mini-cartrige from the old system board to
the new system board.
3. If FRU code 11 appears, reseat the CPU
mini-cartridge.
4. Rerun the test to verify the fix.
5. If FRU code 11 remains, replace the CPU
mini-cartridge.
If this procedure does not correct the problem, go to
“Undetermined Problems” on page 31.
TrackPoint Checkout
If the TrackPoint does not work, do the following:
1. Run the ThinkPad Configurations program and check
if the TrackPoint is enabled.
2. If it is not, select Enable and enable it.

Intermittent Problems
Intermittent system hang problems can be caused by a
variety of reasons that have nothing to do with a hardware
defect, such as: cosmic radiation, electrostatic discharge,
or software errors. FRU replacement should be
considered only when a recurring problem exists.
When analyzing the intermittent problem, do the following:
1. Run the advanced diagnostic test for the system
board in loop mode at least 10 times.
2. If no error is detected, do not replace any FRUs.
3. If any error is detected, replace the FRU shown by
the FRU code. Rerun the test to verify that no more
errors exist.
Undetermined Problems
You are here because the diagnostic tests did not identify
which adapter or device failed, installed devices are
incorrect, a short circuit is suspected, or the system is
inoperative. Follow these procedures to isolate the failing
FRU (do not isolate nondefective FRUs).
Verify that all attached devices are supported by the
computer.

connectors. If the symptom remains, replace the device or
the system board.
If a device that is not installed appears in a dark shade (for
no
example, FDD-2 appears in a dark shade when
FDD is installed), do the following:
1. Replace the first device in the configuration, such as
an FDD-1.
2. If the problem persists, replace the system board.
The Parallel, and Serial icons are always displayed in a
dark shade, because the icons represent subsystems of
the system board and not the attachment of the devices.
The FDD-1 icon represents the first drive in the system
configuration for each type of device. For Model 560Z,
FDD-1 represents an external diskette drive attached
through the external diskette drive connector. Similarly,
the FDD-2 icon represents the second drive, usually
attached through a port replicator.

FRU code (four digits).
The device ID and error code indicate the detailed portion
of the FRU that caused the error. If replacing a FRU does
not correct the problem, see the device ID or error code
from the previous failure. If they have changed, the cause
might be that the new FRU is detective or that the FRU
was incorrectly installed.
Device ID: If an error is detected by the diagnostic
tests, a three-digit device ID is displayed, indicating the
suspected device.
FRU Codes: If an error is detected by the diagnostic
tests, a four-digit FRU code is displayed. The FRU code
indicates two suspected FRUs. Replace the FRU that is
indicated by the
FRU that indicated by the

FRU Removals and Replacements
This section contains information about removals and
replacements.
Do not damage any part. Only certified and trained
personnel should service the computer.
The arrows in the “Removals and Replacements”
section show the direction of movement to remove a
FRU, or to turn a screw to release the FRU. The
arrows are marked in numeric order, in square
callouts, to show the correct sequence of removal.
When other FRUs must be removed before the failing
FRU is removed, they are listed at the top of the
page.
To replace a FRU, reverse the removal procedure
and follow any notes that pertain to replacement.
See “Locations” for internal cable connections and
arrangement information.
When replacing a FRU, use the correct screw size as
shown in the procedures.
CAUTION:
Before removing any FRU, power off the computer,
unplug all power cords from electrical outlets, remove
the battery pack, and then disconnect any
interconnecting cables.
CAUTION:
The battery pack contains small amounts of nickel. Do
not disassemble it, throw it into fire or water, or
short-circuit it. Dispose of the battery pack as
required by local ordinances or regulations.
Attention: Before the computer is powered on after FRU
replacement, make sure all screws, springs, or other small
parts are in place and are not left loose inside the
computer. Verify this by shaking the computer and
listening for rattling sounds. Metallic parts or metal flakes
can cause electrical short circuits.
Attention: The system board is sensitive to, and can be
damaged by, electrostatic discharge. Establish personal
grounding by touching a ground point with one hand before
touching these units.
An electrostatic discharge (ESD) strap (P/N 6405959) must
be used to establish personal grounding.
Important Notice
This computer uses special nylon-coated screws with the
following characteristics:
They maintain tight connections.
They do not easily come loose, even with shock or
vibration.
But:
They need additional force to tighten.
42
They should be used only once.
Do the following when you service this machine:
Keep the screw kit (P/N 12J0808) in your tool bag.
