T43 AC Adapter and Docking Station Power

#1 Post by truestedt » Tue Feb 15, 2011 10:29 am

Hello,
I have a several T43's and like them a lot. But, recently one of them will not accept the AC power adapter nor will it work in the docking station to get power - it works fine on battery as long as I can charge it somewhere else. The ThinkPad is a T43 2668-94U and the docking station is a 2877.
Any suggestions?
Regards, Horst Truestedt

Check the fuses on the systemboad associated with DC power. The DC in jack could also be loose or defective.

Thanks for the suggestion - sounds like the fuse could be the problem since both the DC in and the Docking Station power do now work. Thank you, Horst Truestedt
