LCD-related symptoms
Important: The TFT LCD for the notebook computer contains many thin-film transistors (TFTs). The presence of a
small number of dots that are missing, discolored, or always lighted is characteristic of TFT LCD technology, but
excessive pixel problems can cause viewing concerns.
If the LCD you are servicing has two or less visible defective pixels, it should not be considered faulty. However, if the
LCD has three or more visible defective pixels, it will be deemed as defective by Lenovo and it should be replaced.
Notes:
• This policy applies to all ThinkPad Notebooks purchased on 1 January, 2008 or later.
• Lenovo will not provide replacement if the LCD is within specification as we cannot guarantee that any
replacement LCD will have zero pixel defects.
• One pixel consists of R, G, B sub-pixels.

Intermittent problems
Intermittent system hang problems can be due to a variety of causes 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 problem recurs.
When analyzing an intermittent problem, do the following:
1. Run the diagnostic test for the system board in loop mode at least 10 times .
