I got a problem with the middle click. It's sometimes pressed without me pressing it. If i remove the smaller flexible cable, will it also disable the left and right click? 😢 Please reply.
Hi, I've been planning to replace the keyboard of my secondhand T480, but I am seeing some mixed reviews in the keyboards that I have found. Some say the left click doesn't work and it's fake and etc. Where do you think I should order to get an authentic keyboard, do you think it's worth to get one, since it's more expensive. Lastly, where did you order yours? Thanks.
Hello, greetings from México! I'm thinking of buying a renewed T480 from Amazon, however, it only comes with an english keyboard, would it be possible to swap it to a spanish one or are the cables different and thus, not possible? Awesome video btw.
Hi! I swapped my keyboard for exactly same model. Somehow I managed to break tab from trackpoint cable... and obviously trackpoint and mouse buttons are not working even if i stick the cable ang glue it. Is there any way to fix this? Also, the backlit isnt working either.
Any tips for removing a stuck keyboard? I spilled beer on it and im trying to clean it but its glued in there now. Ive replaced it once before and didnt have this problem
@@ScorpionComputersHettonleHole yea it got fried, weird I took it all apart and there was no visible damage to the board, some component got fried. It's a Lenovo with drain holes someone once said you could spill lava on those I'll admit I didn't know about the drain holes and tipped the stupid thing upside down, woulda been fine otherwise I think from what I read
FYI there is a setting you have to check in the device manager, and might need to rescan drivers. I replaced my broken light up with a different one and well it worked but the lights didn't come on for a few months till I played with the repair settings in startup.
Very helpful.
I replaced non backlit to backlit keyboard and works nice.
Thanks.
Glad it worked out!
Hello again, here to replace my keyboard! Everything went smoothly, thanks for the video.
That's great to hear!
Thank you for the informative and concise video.
Thanks, great video again. I’m doing my ram & dual heatsink this weekend with your videos.
Have fun and send updates!
Very helpful Thankyou, I had a couple dead keys on my t480, and this was extremely helpful and simple Thankyou
Super. I have just replaced my keyboard folllwing your video. Thank you for a good video
Glad it helped!
Thanks so much for the video, greatly appreciated!
You're welcome!!
The two captive screws are not tightening for me. I've made sure the keyboard is aligned properly and pulled towards the palmrest.
Nice video, straight to the point! My question, is this applicable also to E-480 series?
I don't have the E480, but I wouldn't be surprised if the procedure was similar.
Just worked for me. Thank you!
Awesome!
Thanks for the video, I replaced my keyboard for a backlit one, but for some reason my trackpad stopped working, I'm not sure why.
thank you
You're welcome!
Obrigado simples e pratico
is it possible to replace non-backlit keyboard with backlit one? (T580 keyboard without backlit sign)

I replaced my keyboard because the buttons weren't working anymore. Some keys aren't working with the replaced new one now.
seems like the lid would love some cleaning. :D
Haha I know!

Is it the same for t480s ?

If you've spilled beer you've likely caused water damage to the motherboard underneath - time for a new laptop

Hi, my laptop used UK keyboard layout. Can I replace it with the US keyboard?
Yes, that ought to work just fine.
@@ChezDoesStuff Ok, thanks a lot bro
Disconnect the battery first
That's unuseful, this model have two batteries. The other one is internal.
@@arberthree nexi one if 1.5 low..

Just need to buy the part. It's a straightforward swap with the non-backlit one :)
