IBM ThinkPad T43: Fan Error
Thursday, January 31, 2008
An IBM ThinkPad T43 was in this week with a Fan Error. This is yet another laptop that passed through with a little Best Buy sticker on it. Anyways, after our customer was (mis)informed that his laptop was junk, he went home and went online to find out the truth, which is when he found us.
It turns out this T43 was still under warranty. Our customer could've had it repaired for free by IBM but he wanted the repair expedited and we had a fan in stock. He left the unit with us and came back by 4hrs later to pick the unit up, fixed.
It just needed a new fan!

There are different types of fans used in the various T42 laptops but most of them are new, in stock and around $99 - $119 installed.
