Also, the computer goes into hibernation mode automatically after a period of inactivity specified in power
plan settings.
When the power is turned on, the computer returns from hibernation mode and resumes operation. The
hibernation file in the boot record on the hard disk drive, hybrid drive, or solid-state drive is read, and system
status is restored from the hard disk drive, hybrid drive, or solid-state drive.
Symptom-to-FRU index
This section contains following information:
• "Numeric error codes" on page 37
• "Error messages" on page 39
• "Beep symptoms" on page 39
• "No-beep symptoms" on page 40
• "LCD-related symptoms" on page 41
• "Intermittent problems" on page 41
• "Undetermined problems" on page 41
The symptom-to-FRU index in this section lists symptoms and errors and their possible causes. The most
likely cause is listed first, in boldface type.
Note: Do the FRU replacement or other actions in the sequence shown in the column headed "FRU or
action, in sequence." If replacing a FRU does not solve the problem, put the original part back in the
computer. Do not replace a nondefective FRU.
This index can also help you determine, during regular servicing, what FRUs are likely to need to be replaced
next.
A numeric error is displayed for each error detected in POST or system operation. In the displays, n can be
any number.
If no numeric code is displayed, check the narrative descriptions of symptoms. If the symptom is not
described there, go to "Intermittent problems" on page 41.
Note: For a device not supported by diagnostic codes in the ThinkPad notebook computers, see the manual
for that device.
