Lenovo ThinkPad T490 parts — FRU numbers

Q: Do parts from the ThinkPad T480 or T490s fit the T490?

Partly. The T490 shares its chassis design with the T480 (predecessor) — many cases, hinges and palmrests are shared. Note: the T490s is a separate, thinner design (different case, USB-C charging) and its parts usually do NOT fit the T490. Match the motherboard strictly by FRU number (T490 — 8th gen Intel).

Q: What battery does the T490 have and which one to choose?

The T490 has an internal battery (mounted inside the case). Choose the matching cell by the FRU number of your current battery — in the Main batteries section above. Separately there is a small CMOS battery backing up the BIOS settings.

Q: What charger does the T490 use?

The T490 charges with a Slim Tip (rectangular) adapter, usually 65 W. Chargers from the same family as the T480/T470 are compatible — confirm a wattage no lower than the original. (Not to be confused with the T490s, which charges via USB-C.)

In short: in a Lenovo ThinkPad T490 you can replace virtually every component — from the battery, palmrest and keyboard, through cables and the display, to the motherboard and charger. 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.

Which LCD display cable should I choose for the T490?

It depends on the installed panel — the T490 came with HD, Full HD and Full HD touch panels. Each type has its own eDP cable with a different FRU number; an incompatible cable means no image. First determine your display type, then choose an item from the Display, cables and hinges section.

Choose a variant matching your keyboard language layout and the presence of a fingerprint reader. Variants with available FRU numbers are in the Palmrest, keyboard, touchpad section.
