Note: Do the FRU replacement or other actions in the sequence shown in the column headed “FRU oraction, in sequence.” If replacing a FRU does not solve the problem, put the original part back in thecomputer. Do not replace a nondefective FRU.This index can also help you determine, during regular servicing, what FRUs are likely to need to bereplaced next.A numeric error is displayed for each error detected in POST or system operation. In the displays, n canbe any number.If no numeric code is displayed, check the narrative descriptions of symptoms. If the symptom is notdescribed there, go to “Intermittent problems” on page 46.Note: For a device not supported by diagnostic codes in the ThinkPad Notebooks, see the manual forthat device.Numeric error codesTable 2.
