Chapter 2. Important service information
This chapter presents the following important service information that applies to all machine types supported
by this manual:

"Strategy for replacing FRUs" on page 17

Strategy for replacing FRUs
Before replacing parts:
Ensure that all software fixes, drivers, and UEFI BIOS downloads are installed before you replace any
FRUs listed in this manual.
After a system board is replaced, ensure that the latest UEFI BIOS is loaded to the system board before you
complete the service action.
To download software fixes, drivers, and UEFI BIOS, go to http://www.lenovo.com/ThinkPadDrivers and
Use the following strategy to prevent unnecessary expense for replacing and servicing FRUs:
• If you are instructed to replace a FRU but the replacement does not correct the problem, reinstall the
original FRU before you continue.
• Some computers have both a processor board and a system board. If you are instructed to replace either
the processor board or the system board, and replacing one of them does not correct the problem,
reinstall that board, and then replace the other one.
• If an adapter or a device consists of more than one FRU, any of the FRUs might be the cause of the error.
Before replacing the adapter or device, remove the FRUs, one by one, to see if the symptoms change.
Replace only the FRU that changed the symptoms.
Attention: The setup configuration on the computer you are servicing may have been customized. Running
Automatic Configuration may alter the settings. Note the current configuration settings (using the View
Configuration option); then, when service has been completed, verify that those settings remain in effect.
