Hi everybody.
My t440s has now this annoying problem.
Sometimes (i mean: every 2 days or so) it won't boot.
Not only, if i attach the power cord, nothing happens (usually attaching the power cord, the red led blinks 3 times).
It seems dead.

I try removing external battery, pressing the reset switch for the second (internal) battery, pressing and releasing the power on button, but without success.
The only way to resume the laptop, is opening it, and detach and reconnect the connector of the internal battery.

Now i'm working with the connector detached, to avoid every time the need to open the case in order to boot the laptop
What do you think?
Battery seems ok (the charge is the usual), and once reconnected the laptop boot without problem...

Any suggestions?
Thanks

Buy a new batt and try, maybe ur battery is internally shorted??

Hi and thanks for the reply.
I don't think the internal battery is shorted, because after i detach & reconnect it, it's recognized correctly and it works...
Am i wrong?
Thanks
