Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon Gen 8 - 20UA - 2100 Detection Error on Storage Device

by ogruendel

Hi all,
I have a Thinkpad X1 Carbon that does not want to recognize any SSD I put in it. I have verified that the M.2 drive works in another Laptop and reflashed the BIOS with the Lenovo provided ISO file from here however the issue still stands.
Could reflashing the BIOS with a dedicated programmer fix this issue or what else is there to check?
I have attached a schematic and boardview pdf in case it helps anyone.

Lenovo Thinkpad 11e showing "Thermal sensing error" upon powering on.

by SageHappy

Hello guys,
I hope you are all good. One day my Lenovo thinkpad 11e laptop just started displaying "Thermal sensing error" after I switched it on. At first I thought it was an issue to do with a defective thermal sensor in my fan. I replaced the old fan with another used fan but, the problem still persists. From where I bought the fan, they said the fan was working just fine so, my question is how can I rectify this problem. Thank you in advance.

Lenovo ThinkPad P15 Gen2 Battery Mosfet Replacement

by Grafnus
Hey there,

first time posting here. I have been lurking a bit trying to find a solution but with little to no avail.

So I have a Lenovo ThinkPad P15 Gen2. When I got it (for free) it was turning on but not charging because the battery was unplugged. When I plug the battery in, the Laptop won't boot at all.

Specs:
- Type: Lenovo ThinkPad P15 Gen2 20YQ-001KGE
- CPU, GPU, RAM work fine (not involved in the Problem)
So the first thought was to toss the battery and get a new one, as clearly the BMS is throwing errors or something.

Now I noticed...
