[ltp] fuses in TP600E

[Carl Friedberg]

I was going to give you my link to IBM support pages, but I tried it first, and it no longer works.

I wish you luck. What i used to do was this:

www.pc.ibm.com/support?page=IBM+PC

On the right, there was a text box where you can enter the model / type (e.g. 2626ENU); and it brought you to a page for that model. From there, you could select online publications, and then download the hardware (factory) manual in PDF format. That had every part number for the model. Then, you can search for the part. In your case, it would have step-by-step instructions on replacing the fuse, I'm sure.

It's unbelievable that IBM, which has every PC technical support manual online, has broken this sytem.

Anyone on this list from IBM? Can you explain how to do this now?

Sorry, I don't know how to do this anymore. This link worked last week. and for about 5 years before that...

Carl
