Compatible Models

This list is a reference guide, not a completely exhaustive, ThinkPad configurations vary by region, production batch, and exact type number, and those variations can matter when it comes to keyboard fitment. A model number match is the right starting point, but a direct verification with us before ordering is what removes any remaining uncertainty.

Part Number Cross-Reference

For those working from service documentation or cross-referencing against an existing part, the following FRU part numbers are associated with this keyboard:

04X0177 · 04X0215 · 04Y0900

If your unit’s documentation references one of these, it is a strong indicator of compatibility, but pairing that with a direct verification by us (by clicking the “verify compatibility” button) remains the most reliable approach.

The TrackPoint

For many ThinkPad users, the TrackPoint is not optional, it is central to how they work. The ability to move the cursor without shifting hand position, to navigate precisely without a separate mouse, is one of the good characteristics of the ThinkPad keyboard. This replacement keyboard includes a fully functional TrackPoint, meaning you do not have to give up that capability as part of the repair process. Everything that made your original keyboard work for you is retained.

Getting It Right the First Time

The X-series spans multiple type numbers within each model name, and because keyboards may vary between those types, the margin for a mismatch is slightly narrower than with some other laptop families. It is not a reason to hesitate, it is a reason to take one simple step before committing.

Initiate a verification process via the “verify compatibility” button, share key details about your laptop allowing us to look beyond the model name and check your specific unit’s configuration.

I the rare cases a compatibility problem arises, a 7-day return is available from the date of purchase giving you a clear and straightforward path to a resolution (subject to policy). This ensures you are not left with a keyboard that does not work for your machine.
