Frequently asked questions
Will this keyboard fit my Lenovo ThinkPad T480s?
It is made for the Lenovo ThinkPad T480s. Check the model name on the sticker under your laptop. If your keyboard has a part number, send it to us and we will confirm the match before you order.
How do I know if my laptop has a backlit keyboard?
Look for a small light symbol on one of the function keys (often F5, F9, F10 or the spacebar on ThinkPads). If the symbol is there and your keys used to light up, choose the backlit version; a backlit keyboard will not light up on a laptop that was built without backlight support.
UK or US layout – what’s the difference?
The UK layout has a tall, two-row Enter key and a £ symbol; the US layout has a wide one-row Enter key and a $ above the 4. Match the layout of your current keyboard so the keys fit the opening exactly.
Can you fit the keyboard for me?
Fitting usually means removing the bottom cover (and on some models the battery) and reconnecting a ribbon cable. If you’re not comfortable doing this, any laptop technician can fit it in minutes; contact us for help.
