  1. Lenovo Thinkpad x230 Keyboard Replacement, Preparations: Schritt 1, Bild 1 von 1
    • Before you begin, be sure to turn off your laptop and unplug it from the outlet.

    Wouldn’t the risk of ESD damage be a bigger concern than electrical shock from a 20V/90W power supply? I mean, it would hurt, but it almost certainly wouldn’t kill you.

    • This step is not required.

    • Gently pull the strip out from the case.

    How do I reinsert this strip? When I insert the bottom clips first I can’t get the top ones in and vice versa. Also I don’t understand the mechanism of the top clips, why do they have the shape they do?

Very good instructions. Really easy. Difficulty rather easy than moderate. Took me two minutes.
