Description
The LCD self-test is for testing the functionality of the LCD panel of a ThinkPad laptop without the need of an external display. The test can be used if the machine shows a blank screen when powered on. Use this test as part of the LCD diagnostic testing. Note: Check the Hardware Maintenance Manual to see if your model supports the LCD Self-Test.
For example: T490s Hardware Maintenance Manual (page 39 and 40 or 45 and 46 on document outline).
