UPDATE 2
Initially feeling lazy to post an update regarding this issue, but this may help to be a future reference for people who faced similiar problems and wanting to know feedback regarding this issue. So here it goes. During the duration of repair, I have called the service centre approximately 5 times, each time asking for the status of progress regarding the repair. Here are the details regarding each call: Call 1: Requested additional parts from Lenovo HQ after diagnosis of the problem, awaiting reply. Call 2: Requested replacement of motherboard approved from HQ, pending arrival of parts, ETA the same week. Call 3: Replacement motherboard unit is faulty, unable to turn on laptop, 2nd request from HQ for new motherboard, again ETA the same week. Call 4: 2nd Replacement motherboard also faulty, causing BSOD for unknown reasons after certain period of time, request from HQ for new motherboard, no ETA. Call 5: ETA of new motherboard by the same week. (Specifically requested it to be done by the following week as my old HP laptop is having issues) A week after the fifth call, they called and notified me that my laptop is ready for collection (June 11), which makes the whole duration of repair 2 months, a month longer than expected (may be absurd for some as typical laptop repairs only take about a week or so). Went for collection, checked for any damages, and left after signage of documents. The staff there handled the situation well with a smile and explained everything patiently. However, the 4 little lightbulbs which indicate Power, Battery, Disabled Mousepad, and Caps Lock seems to be dimmer than usual, although not an issue but deserves to be pointed out. IMO, I dare not falsely accuse the Lenovo Service Centre for making up excuses for the delay of my laptop repair, but the reasons given in all 5 calls seem oddly suspicious to me as it sounded as if they are making up excuses for the delay of the laptop. Therefore, my advise to anyone whom is dealing with Lenovo Service Centres to strictly request the laptop to be done in the shortest time possible, thus making it seem urgent and they might provide you with a speedier service. Anyways, thank you so much for everyone who has been helping me through this, and I already bought a Macbook during the wait, thus making it bearable for me. |

hi tumpang thread.
my lenovo y40 is about 1 year 2 months old. after fully charge and shut down, when i turn on the laptop again it will shows full battery. However, after like 3-5 mins it will auto shut down with no warning and the battery indicator is blinking orange. I need to plug in power source only can turn on again. Battery issue or software issue? how to diagnose? P/S the battery is internal build. |

It shows 16% wear level. ------ last night charged till 100% and shut down. then try turn it on again (shows 100%) without power plug. After few mins the screen just black out and orange blink again at battery LED notification. plug in power only can turn on and it show 4% left. Let it charge to about 35% then suddenly it shows 100% again. Then unplug power so far still okay after 20 mins. Didnt auto shut down (screen turn black). So strange. it happens only if i boot up pc without power plug. This post has been edited by cristiano7mu: Mar 12 2016, 12:38 AM |

QUOTE(cristiano7mu @ Mar 12 2016, 12:21 AM) Thanks. 16% isn't a bad battery. Could be a problem with your laptop charging the battery or the calibration is seriously off. You can download the lenovo power management tools, there should be a function in there to re-calibrate your battery. Try that and see if it helps.It shows 16% wear level. ------ last night charged till 100% and shut down. then try turn it on again (shows 100%) without power plug.

So strange. it happens only if i boot up pc without power plug. I think the new Lenovo batteries come with a chip in it for smart charging. That could cause problems too. I remember seeing something similar in a Lenovo T430. |
