Figure 2-4 Keyboard troubleshooting process
To determine if the computers keyboard is functioning properly, perform the following procedures. Figure 2-5 outlines the process. Start with Procedure 1 and continue with the other procedures as instructed. Procedure 1: External keyboard check Procedure 2: Diagnostic check Procedure 3: Connector and replacement check Procedure 1 External keyboard check
Connect a USB keyboard to one of the computers USB ports, then boot the computer. The computer automatically detects the external keyboard. If the external keyboard works correctly, the internal keyboard or its connections may be faulty. Go to Procedure 2. If the external keyboard appears to have the same problem as the internal keyboard, the system board may be damaged. Replace it with a new one following the instructions in Chapter 4. Procedure 2 Diagnostic check
Run the Diagnostic Program, which will automatically execute the Keyboard Test. Refer to Chapter 3, Tests and Diagnostics for more information on how to run the program. If an error is located, go to Procedure 3. If an error does not occur, the keyboard is functioning properly.
The keyboard and/or system board may be disconnected or damaged. Disassemble the computer following the steps described in Chapter 4, Replacement Procedures and perform the following checks. Check 1 Make sure the keyboard cable is firmly connected to the system board. If the connection is loose, reconnect firmly and repeat Procedure 2. If there is still an error, go to Check 2. Check 2 The keyboard may be damaged. Replace it with a new one following the instructions in Chapter 4. If the problem still exists, perform Check 3. Check 3 The system board may be damaged. Replace it with a new one following the instructions in Chapter 4.

The SYCARD test card contains a PC Card test program. Ensure the card in fully inserted into the socket before running the program. If an error occurs during the SYCARD test, perform Procedure 2. If no error occurs, it is likely that the original PC card was faulty. Procedure 2 PC Card socket replacement check
The PC Card socket may be damaged or defective, for instance the socket pins can be bent. Disassemble the computer following the steps described in Chapter 4, Replacement Procedures and replace the socket. If the problem persists, the system board may be defective or damaged. Replace the system board with a new one following the steps in Chapter 4.

Figure 2-13 IEEE 1394 troubleshooting process
To determine if the computers IEEE 1394 system is functioning properly, perform the following procedures. Figure 2-14 outlines the process. Start with Procedure 1 and continue with the other procedures as instructed. Procedure 1: IEEE 1394 device check Procedure 2: Diagnostic check Procedure 3: Connection and replacement check Procedure 1 IEEE 1394 device check
Connect an IEEE 1394 device to the computers IEEE 1394 port, then boot the computer for Windows XP. The computer should automatically detect the 1394 device. Check whether the device can transmit data to the computer. If the device is able to communicate with the computer, the problem may be intermittent or connections may be faulty. Go to Procedure 2. If communication is impaired, there may be a faulty connection. Go to Procedure 3. Procedure 2 Diagnostic check
Run the Diagnostic Program, which will automatically execute the IEEE 1394 port test for transmission. Refer to Chapter 3, Tests and Diagnostics for more information on how to run the program. If an error is located, go to Procedure 3. If an error does not occur, the 1394 port is functioning properly. Procedure 3 Connection and replacement check

Before You Begin Look over the procedures in this section before you begin disassembling the computer. Familiarize yourself with the disassembly and reassembly steps. Begin each procedure by removing the AC adaptor and the battery pack as instructed in section 4.2. 1. Do not disassemble the computer unless it is operating abnormally. 2. Use only the correct and approved tools. 3. Make sure the working environment is free from the following elements whether you are using or storing the computer. Dust and contaminates Static electricity Extreme heat, cold and humidity 4. Make sure the FRU you are replacing is causing the abnormal operation by performing the necessary troubleshooting and diagnostics tests described in chapters 2 and 3 of this manual. 5. Do not perform any operations that are not necessary and use only the described procedures for disassembling and installing FRUs in the computer. 6. After removing parts from the computer, place them in a safe place away from the computer so they will not be damaged and will not interfere with your work. 7. You will remove and replace many screws when you disassemble the computer. When you remove screws, make sure they are placed in a safe place and identified with the correct parts. 8. When assembling the computer make sure you use the correct screws to secure the various pieces. Screw sizes are listed in their corresponding figures. 9. The computer contains many sharp edges and corners, so be careful not to injure yourself. 10. After you have replaced an FRU, make sure the computer is functioning properly by performing the appropriate test on the FRU you have fixed or replaced.
Disassembly Procedures The computer has two basic types of cable connectors: Pressure Plate Connectors Standard Pin Connectors To disconnect a Pressure Plate connector, lift up the tabs on either side of the connectors plastic pressure plate and slide the cable out of the connector. To connect the cable to a Pressure Plate connector, make sure the pressure plate is fully lifted and slide the cable into the connector. Secure the cable in place by pushing the sides of the pressure plate down so the plate is flush with the sides of the connector. Gently pull on the cable to make sure the cable is secure. If you pull out the connector, connect it again making sure the connectors pressure plate is fully lifted when you insert the cable. Standard pin connectors are used with all other cables. These connectors can be connected and disconnected by simply pulling them apart or pushing them together. Assembly Procedures After you have disassembled the computer and fixed or repaired the problem that was causing the computer to operate abnormally, you will need to reassemble the computer. Install all the removed FRUs following the steps described in the corresponding sections in this chapter. While assembling the computer, remember the following general points: Take your time, making sure you follow the instructions closely. Most problems arise when you get in a hurry assembling the computer. Make sure all cables and connectors are securely fastened. Before securing the FRU or other parts, make sure that no cables will be pinched by screws or the FRU. Check that all latches are closed securely. Make sure all the correct screws are used to secure all FRUs. Using the wrong screw can either damage the threads on the screw or the head of the screw and may prevent proper seating of an FRU. After installing an FRU in the computer, confirm that the FRU and the computer are functioning properly.
