Introdução

In this guide, the motherboard of the Lenovo ThinkPad L390 is being removed for replacement because the motherboard is damaged. The motherboard is a key component within any device. It’s responsible for facilitating communication between all of the device’s main components. Without the motherboard, the device becomes unusable. Before removing the motherboard, make sure to remove any connecting power cables and to only proceed if your battery charge is at 25% or lower. This is to prevent your battery from exploding or catching on fire in case of a puncture. After removing the motherboard, the proper steps to dispose of it would be to take it to a facility that takes electronic waste.
