help, x60s power charger break down in italy

#1 Post by syrahnose » Sun Nov 29, 2009 10:54 am

i'm in Italy and my x60s power brick seems to have died. I have one hour left on my battery so comp is okay. how do i tell if the unit has failed, or the plug to comp has failed or the internal receptical has failed. any quick diagnostics. I donàt have much time off to go to a major city and find an ibm repair person. if i knew it was the power unit i could order another and have it waiting on my return to usa.

i have a new x200 waiting for me in us, can i use that power unit to recharge my batteries in the x60s?

thanks in advance.

According to the Lenovo support site here you can call their 800 number listed below 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

+39-800-820094

As far as quick diagnostics if you can check the voltage output with a multmeter.

You can use the X200's a/c adapter with your ThinkPad.

thanks brad, that is helpful.

someone did call for me on sunday and got relatively vague information from weekend team. i ll call today and see if any place close to get it checked.

knowing the x200 charger will work is helpful too in longer term fall back position.
