    Lenovo Thinkpad E16 Gen3 BIOS password

    I have this unit with an administrator password set in the BIOS. Would it be possible to unlock it to remove the password and restore full functionality to the device?

    SN: PF-5M9ESH
    Type Number: 21SR-000QSP
    Compilance ID: TP00166A

          I have reprogrammed the EC, but I was unable to complete the write process because this KBC model has write protection enabled. Therefore, I have not yet been able to verify whether the dump works correctly. Are there any alternative methods?

                  off topic, this thread is only about the Thinkpad E16 Gen3 BIOS password, nothing else.

                Should I buy a Lenovo Thinkpad E495 with bios password?
                by RMDUiFT
                Good day. I apologize if I posted this in the wrong topic. I saw somebody selling a Thinkpad E495 with a Ryzen 3500U CPU near me. In the pictures the laptop is running windows 10. I contacted the seller and asked a few questions about upgradability and if it has a bios password on it. He confirmed it has a bios password. I searched through the forum, I found a guide regarding removing the bios password using the autopatcher, I also found a thread with the e495 where people requested help with unlocking the bios password.

                I have a few questions:

                Summary of BIOS Whitelist Removal Problem


                Problem:
                I am attempting to remove the WWAN card whitelist from my Lenovo ThinkPad T560.
                Initial Findings:
                • My current BIOS version is N1KET58W (1.45).
                • I have a CH341A programmer and have successfully created two full backups of my BIOS.
                • I have the ability to use command-line tools on a Linux machine.
                Troubleshooting Steps & Conclusions:
                • I attempted to use several automated and manual patching methods on my N1KET58W (1.45) BIOS, including using hex strings. These attempts all failed.
                • I concluded that the

                Need Clean BIOS/EC Bin File for Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 11e 2H1703-27220F Rev. A Marked as U2501 on the motherboard.

                Need Clean BIOS/EC Bin File for Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 11e - Stuck with 0275 Error CMS

                Hello everyone,

                I am attempting a repair on a Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 11e that is currently stuck at boot with the error: "0275 error CMS" even after setup new bios battery and will not allow me to enter the BIOS/Setup.

                This is a critical issue that I believe requires flashing the BIOS chip directly using a programmer (e.g., CH341A/RT809H), as standard software updates or resets are not possible.

                I have opened the laptop and identified the main BIOS chip...

                Lenovo Thinkpad L13 Type 21R8 Gen 6 BIOS Password
                by fourfx
                Hello

                I am working on removing password for this lenovo thinkpad L13 type 21R8 bios
                Below is two images with the key chips to remove the password.
                I have removed the MXIC chip (with the bios arrow on img below) and posted dump as well.

                I am not 100% sure if the MXIC is the one needed to patch or the winbond or gigabyte?
                If anyone can point me in the right direction would be awesome!

                Cheers

                Hello Hello,

                I have been browsing the site and gotten so much useful info from here, including extremely helpful boardviews and several other very useful types of information. I am very grateful to this community, as I have actually eeked out a living from buying salvage PC's & Macbooks and repairing them. So, thank you all in advance!


                I have searched and found some useful information regarding my issue, but my case is a bit different than the info I'm finding. But if anyone here can give me any useful advice, it would be highly appreciated.
