How many pins on the T-30 LCD screen connector?

#1 Post by bayawan » Sat Apr 17, 2010 3:54 pm

Can anybody tell me how many pins the LCD screen takes on a Thinkpad T-30?

The T-30 connector width is slightly smaller on the T-30 than normal 20 pin connectors.
My T-30 screen is bad and I have some other screens that take a 20 pin connector but none will work on the T-30.

The T30 LCD has 20 pins.
Many of us have tried, but AFAIK nobody has found a compatible LCD from another laptop or even another brand.
This is what's available: (first is P/N, the second is FRU)
XGA Samsung 11P8289 11P8294 LTN141XE-L01
XGA Hitachi 11P8292 11P8297 TX36D37NC1NAA
XGA Hitachi 11P8292 11P8297 TX36D37VC1CAA

SXGA+ Samsung ........ 11P8273 LTN141PE-L01
SXGA+ LG Philips 11P8290 11P8295 LP141E04 (B1)

Has anybody tried an adapter from this site

Ooops maybe I'm not supposed to add a link?

Maybe the T-30 uses a mm type?

Has anybody tried an adapter? 25mm 20 pin convert to 20 pin flat

Those adapters are known, but were never used on a T30 AFAIK.

Well maybe I'll try one and see.
I'll post later with the results.

Thanks for the help
