In short: in a Lenovo ThinkPad X230 you can replace virtually every component - from the battery and keyboard, through the palmrest, cables and cases, to the motherboard. The most reliable way to match the right part is the FRU / Part Number printed on the original component. We confirm model compatibility against the official Lenovo Hardware Maintenance Manual and the laptop's As-Built number, so each part lists verified compatible models and replacement numbers.

Frequently asked questions about X230 parts
Do parts from the ThinkPad X220 fit the X230?
Partly. The X230 and X220 (predecessor) have a very similar 12.5" chassis - many cases, batteries and parts are shared. The most important difference is the keyboard: the X230 already has the island (chiclet) one, while the X220 still has the classic 7-row - and these are NOT interchangeable. Match the motherboard by FRU number (X230 - Ivy Bridge, X220 - Sandy Bridge).
What battery does the X230 have and which one to choose?
The X230 has a classic, removable battery mounted at the rear (6- or 9-cell) - an older design predating the Power Bridge system. Choose the variant by FRU number. Separately there is a small CMOS battery backing up the BIOS settings.
Which LCD display cable should I choose for the X230?
The X230 came with a 12.5" HD (1366×768) panel in an IPS (Premium HD) or a standard TN variant. The display cable has its own FRU number - choose the one matching your panel. First determine your display type, then choose an item from the Display, cables and hinges section.
Palmrest and keyboard for the X230 - what to look out for?
The X230 has the island (chiclet) keyboard - the classic 7-row one from the X220 does not fit. Choose a keyboard and palmrest matching your language layout. Variants with FRU numbers are in the Palmrest, keyboard, touchpad section.
Which motherboard fits the X230?
The X230 used Intel 3rd generation processors (Ivy Bridge), in i3 / i5 / i7 versions. The motherboard is matched strictly by FRU number - check the marking of your current board or give us your configuration.
What charger does the X230 use?
The X230 charges with a classic round-barrel adapter (7.9 mm with a centre pin), usually 65 W - an older generation predating the rectangular Slim Tip. Slim Tip adapters (X240 and newer) and USB-C do NOT fit the X230.
How do I check the FRU number of an X230 part?
The FRU number (Part Number) is printed on the component itself - on the battery, keyboard, cable or board. It is the most reliable way to choose. We described how to read it in our guide How to read a Lenovo FRU number.
Which X230 parts are replaced most often?
The most frequently replaced are the battery (it loses capacity over the years), the keyboard, the display cable and hinges, and the bottom case. You will find all these items in the list above with their FRU numbers.
