Lenovo USB-C Charging Port Issues

What do you guys think about USB-C ? It is becoming more and more of a standard. But I can only imagine why we don't see it in gaming laptops 🤔

What is the fix for this?

I’m having issues with slim 7 x pro currently

Ugh, we bought my MIL a Thinkpad E580 in early 2018...obviously this model isn't on the list. Charging via USB-C is a terrible idea. My MIL has been complaining about charging issues for years and now it's not working at all. I realize the machine is 6 years old, but I have a 20 year old VAIO that still works pretty good, folks.

Wish I'd known about MS Bit Locker, tho!

Anyway, I'd rather go back to RS232 because at least it's human repairable without a microscope and proprietary tools.

Can you help? the USB-C charging and data port only charging the latpop but not sending data through (USB-C connecting to monitor). How can i fix this issue?

i changed my charger port two times now, im never buying a pc with this charger port again

When ever I use the laptop while the charger is plugged it I face a lag in my trackpad cursor but the earthing grounding in my home is fine I checked it but still I face this issue I don't know why any ideas?

is it posibble to disable charging from docking station lenovo thinkpad?

please help me the usb c isnt working so what happened is that the screen was flickering every 5 mins so i dissembled my lenovo thinkbook 14 g2 and then the fan wasnt running and the laptop was soo laggy then i removed the screws again and put it back together and now its not opening cuz it has no charger and it isnt charging PLEASE I BEG U THIS IS A SCHOOLS LAPTOP PLEASE I NEED HELP AS FAST AS POSSIBLE PLEASE I NEED IT

Everyone, my both type C ports stoped working, charging one and the one beside it. All you have to do is, take the sim ejector tool and press the reset button which is on the bottom. some one said to press it 3 times, so I pressed it three times. mine was in the center. its a tiny hole, like the sim hole. and then turn it on, and the ports will work again. You should have some power in battery for this to work I guess. Don't take it to the technician.

Si can I charge it on the thunderbolt ?

On Legion 5 2023, My usbc port doesn't work when I connect my charger to the laptop, and it works fine when not charging the laptop... Wtf

I've got a Gen 9 X1 that stopped charging. At first, it would only take 5v, it would only charge at 11-12w sometimes. Both ports behaved the same.

I attempted a solder reflow of the two grey mosfet chips (CSD87501L) that it seems lenovo has epoxy glued to the board. This did not resolve. I have a few of them on the way, I will try replacing them. With my thermal camera out, it seems the two very small black rectangular IC's that are nearest both USB C ports get quite hot. I cannot hold my finger on them while 5v usb power is being received. Whatever these two IC's are, they seem to be internally shorting or maybe they are a self-resetting fuse. The only recognizable characters are KP and MF8E or MFBE of these two identical IC components.

Why is my Lenovo laptop charges only when I use the original charger but doesnt work with any other usb-c charger with PD?

So what the alternative way to handle this issue, my T480s just wont charge

My wife works as a insurance account manager and uses Lenovo and she told me her laptop only had one usb c port. This is used at her work with a docking station and it just stopped working. Registers connection but then doesn’t have any power to the device.

I work in IT at the library so I mainly work with all in one PCs and they’ve had their fair share of system failures lol although Dell support is pretty good.

Thanks for the video! Do you have laptop model / brand you would recommend that has either durable charging port and screen/hinge, or easily and cheaply replaceable charging port and screen/hinge?

So if a have a thinkbook 16P G4 that has the Square Lenovo Power Brick and USB C option to charge, should I avoid using a 3rd party USB C charger ?

I don't buy it that it's a circuit problem. If that was true it would work then suddenly not work. Instead it slowly gets more difficult to connect. Needs a wiggle or to sit just right. Eventually degrades to not work at all. Clearly a problem with physical electrical contact

Having this issue with my Lenovo yoga laptop and have to turn it on its side for it to charge 😢

I was thinking about upgrading my old t440p. Now, I think I won't. It is so stupid to power a laptop with such a fragile port like USB-C.

aHA! That explains a lot. Thank you!

So is it possible to fix?

is there any way to downgrade the charging port to the barrel or rectangle style ?
like the old thinkpad?

I have the same issue. How do you recommend I get mine fixed?

Hello I know this I not related but a Lenovo Backlight just stopped working… I’ve tried all the drivers but nothing I try the keyboard on a different Lenovo and the backlight works… funny parts after a while the same laptop that’s working, just stopped… so I was wondering would possibly make a video a Lenovo backlight circuit specifically… it really will be helpful…

I am losing faith in lenovo and ausus lenovo does not went you to fix there stuff.

So you cant just replace usb-C charging port?
