Log file is a test result file, which records the following information: Test module name,
Test item name, Start/End time and the test result (including PASS, FAIL, SKIP and
ABORT). When a failure is found, both the error code and the error information were
recorded.
In the Log file, we use Test Items as the test item name, which could not be modified in
the whole time. And we use the Internal Name as name in the program’s UI, which
corresponds to the test item name and could be modified according to the user’s favorite.

4.1 General
This chapter explains how to disassemble the computer and replace Field Replaceable Units
(FRUs). Some replacement procedures may not require you to remove all the surrounding
FRUs to replace only one FRU. The chart below shows the FRUs in the order in which they
should be removed in a top-down manner, irrespective of their physical locations. The FRUs
shown in the top area of the chart should normally be removed before removing the FRUs
shown in the bottom area. To replace the FRUs, first identify the suspect FRU for the system
failure. Next, according to this chart, determine the FRUs that need to be removed before
removing the suspect FRU. After you determine those FRUs, go to the appropriate sections
according to the section numbers shown in the boxes. Then start removal and replacement.

4.1 General
Safety Precautions
Before you begin to disassembly read the following safety precautions carefully. Be sure to
follow them while you are working.
DANGER:
1.
Always use the genuine batteries or replacement batteries authorized by Toshiba.
Batteries other than those differ in specifications and are incompatible with the
computer. They may burst or explode. To avoid leakage of alkaline solutions,
never heat or disassemble the battery packs. Never throw the battery packs into a
fire. If this is violated, they will explode.
2.
The components such as the power supply and FL inverter carry high voltages.
When you partially disassemble the computer and turn on the components, use
extreme care not to touch the connectors and components to avoid the risk of
electrical shock. Do not disassemble individual components during first-level
maintenance.
WARNING:
1.
To avoid the risk of electrical shock, turn the computer off and remove the AC
adapter from the electrical outlet.
2.
Because the battery in the computer is left charged, the risk of electrical shock
remains even after the AC adapter is removed from the electrical outlet. To avoid
the risk of electrical shock, be sure to remove any metal jewelry or accessories
such as necklaces, bracelets, and rings before starting work. Never work with
damp or wet hands.
3.
To avoid personal injury, use care to avoid the sharp edges or corners of the
components.

4.1 General
CAUTION:
4 Replacement Procedures
1.
Before replacing a component, make sure that the replacement component meets
the required specifications. To avoid computer failures, never use components
that do not meet the specifications.
2.
To avoid internal damage such as short circuits and fire, never drop metal
objects such as screws, pins, paper clips, etc. into the components. When a screw
is removed, be sure to replace a screw that is the same size as the original screw.
Make sure that all the screws are fastened securely. Loose screws can cause
short circuits, overheating, smoke, or fire.
3.
Before raising a FRU or other component, make sure that all the component
cables have been disconnected to avoid the risk of electrical shock caused by
accidental contact with the energized components.
4.
5.
For AC input, be sure to use the AC adapter and AC power cable that come with
your computer or Toshiba-recommended equivalents.
To avoid the risk of electrical shock, make sure that all the replacement
components meet the specifications of the computer and that all the cables and
connectors are fastened securely.
6.
Inside the PC are components that become hot during operation (such as the
CPU and cooling module). To avoid burns, let the hot components cool down
before starting inspection or repair task.

4 Replacement Procedures
4.1 General
Before You Begin
Before you begin to disassembly the computer, keep in mind the precautions and advice in
this section. Always begin disassembly by removing the AC adapter and battery pack.
Remove the optional parts and accessories as well. The procedures for removing the batteries
will be explained later.
Disassemble the computer only when an abnormality has occurred.
Use only the recommended tools.
To run and store the computer, be sure to prepare a working environment that is free from:
‰ Dust and contaminants
‰ Static electricity
‰ Extremely high or low temperatures and extremely high humidity
Run the diagnostic tests explained in Chapter 2 of this manual to identify the FRU that has
probably caused the system failure.
Perform only the required machine operations. Use only the disassembly and reinstallation
procedures described in this manual.
Place the removed components in a safe place away from the computer so that they are not
damaged or get in the way of you doing your work.
Normally, a number of screws need to be removed or replaced during disassembling. Place
the removed screws in a safe place so that you can easily find the right screws for the right
components.
When assembling the computer, use the specified screws to fasten the parts to the specified
locations. See the appropriate explanations and figures for screw sizes.
To avoid personal injury, use care to handle components that have sharp edges or corners.
After you have replaced a FRU, check that the FRU works correctly to ensure normal
computer operation.

Disassembly Procedures
The cable connectors come in these two basic types:
‰ Pressure plate connectors
‰ Normal pin connectors
To remove a pressure plate connector, pull up the tabs on either side of the connector's
plastic pressure plate and gently pull the cable out of the connector. To reconnect the cable to
the pressure plate's connector, raise the pressure plate up to a satisfactory height and slide the
cable into the connector. Secure the cable in the correct position by pressing down the sides
of the pressure plate so that the plate is flush with the sides of the connector. Grasp and pull
the cable gently to check that the cable is connected firmly. If the cable comes off the
connector, reinsert the cable by raising the pressure plate up to a satisfactory height.
Normal pin connectors are used for all the other types of cables. These connectors can be
installed or removed by simply inserting them or pulling them out.
Assembly Procedures
You have to reassemble the computer after you have disassembled the computer and fixed
the component that caused the problem.
When reassembling the computer, keep the following general guidelines in mind:
‰ Take your time to carry out the suggested instructions completely. Hurried
reassembly can often cause problems.
‰ Check that all the cable and connectors are fastened securely.
‰ Before securing the FRUs or other parts, check that the cables are not caught by the
screws or FRUs.
‰ Check that all the latches are closed securely.
‰ Check that all the required screws are used to secure the FRUs. Using wrong screws
can damage the threads or heads of the screws or does not ensure that the FRUs are
secure.
After installing a FRU, make sure that the FRU and computer work normally.

Precautions for handling the LCD module
The LCD module can be easily damaged during assembly or disassembly. Observe the
following precautions when handling the LCD module:
1. When installing the LCD module in the LCD cover, be sure to seat it so that it is
properly aligned and maximum visibility of the display is maintained.
2. Be careful to align the four holes at the right side and left side of the LCD module
with the corresponding holes in the LCD cover before securing the module with four
screws. Do not force the module into place, because stress can affect its performance.
Also, the panel’s polarized surface is easily scarred, so be carefully when handling it.

3. If the panel’s surface gets dirty, wipe it with cotton or a soft cloth. If it is still dirty,
try breathing on the surface to create a light condensate and wipe it again.
If the surface is very dirty, we recommend a CRT cleaning agent. Apply the agent to
a cloth and then wipe the panel’s surface. Do not apply cleanser directly to the panel.
Also, never scratch the surface.
4. If water or other liquid is left on the panel’s surface for a long period, it can change
the screen’s tint or stain it. Be sure to quickly wipe off any liquid.

5. Glass is used in the panel, so be careful not to drop it or let it strike a hard object,
which could cause breakage or cracks.
6. CMOS-LSI circuits are used in the module, so guard against damage from
electrostatic discharge. Be sure to wear a wrist or ankle ground when handling the
module.

9. Do not disassemble the LCD module. Disassembly can cause malfunctions.
10. If you transport the module, do not use packing material that contains epoxy resin
(amine) or silicon glue (alcohol or oxime). These materials can release gas that can
damage the panel’s polarization.

EC/KBC system.
Tools

‰ BIOS/EC/KBC rewriting disk for the computer
Rewriting the EC/KBC
1. Set the system to boot mode.
2. Turn off the power to the computer.
3. Remove the external cable and PC Card.
4. Connect an external FDD and insert the BIOS/EC/KBC rewriting disk into either the
external FDD.
5. Turn on the power while holding down the [`~] key. (Keep holding down the key

minutes (maximum), depending on the conditions of the computer or ICs.
The computer is not hung up. Allow sufficient time. Never reboot or turn
off the power to the computer before the rewriting is completed.
