Spill coffee Z575

About 2oz of coffee clattered out my cup of coffee and on the keyboard and the touchpad. I turned off the machine, removed the battery and used a can of compressed air to get as much liquid out of the machine as possible. I intend 24 to 48 hours of waiting and turn on the laptop. Is there anything else I should do to ensure the best possible chance of recovery?

#1, patience!

Wait as long as you the can it, I saw laptops
which will not properly work (usually the keyboard) after 1-3 days
working after a week sitting and drying.

Search the Web for "Liquid spilled on laptop" for many tricks.

(You probably have already done this!)

In my opinion we should almost say - go up and check
for the infiltration of liquid. At least remove the keyboard.

And the keyboard is the most likely part
be damaged, of course.

  • [Solved] X121E not start after I spilled coffee on the keyboard :/

    Hello

    My X121e can not start after I spilled coffee on the keyboard, even when it is dry now (I opened and used a hairdryer).

    When I press the power button, the Red led turns on for a second and then it turns off.

    The fan remains off...

    How can I confirm hardware failure? Is there a reset button on this laptop? It is written in the user manual, but I couldn't find it...

    Thank you!

    Everything is OK now: it has restarted!

  • Portege M300: orange light flashes after spill coffee on the keyboard

    My friend got a M300 and hes recently was smart enough to reverse half a cup of coffee on his laptop keyboard. The first thing is that the laptop power not on at all even when plugged so it might be possible to defects. The weird thing is that the orange light for the socket ((deuxieme left) continues to blink slowly to me - any ideas on what this could mean?

    I havn't tried to clean the keyboard yet due to lack of a small enough screwdriver to unscrew, but because the laptop does not in any case, I think that the problem may be bigger than that. Is that what I can do with him or is it just a case of having to buy a new computer laptop coffee becaue is not covered by the warranty lol

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks J

    Hello

    I agree with Miro.
    The must be something wrong with the hardware. Code bilking isn't always the same. The orange light flashes different for different dysfunctions.
    The Toshiba service partner can read this code and then can give you a good answer on the blackout.

  • Coffee spilled on thinkpad. no light

    Hello

    Stupidly, concerned about anxiety I spilled a cup of black coffee warm the upper left corner of the keyboard of my R60e. After a few seconds, that the system went blind anywhere. I disconnected AC and battery and shook what coffee was dripping bottomm especially the side and rear fan vents and shortly after that I opened it via the instructions to change keyboard and all found inside still dry - even below the keyboard - except a few drops of coffee all about fan I still towel dabbed and dried off and closed up. I waited 15 minutes and attached battery and power on button / for half a second the green light flashed battery then nothing more. I did briefly even with ca and even effect.

    I googled of remedies in the case everything is not lost and made a popular but which resulted in pressing the down ten times power button, 1 time per second, then down to more than thirty seconds and a short wait for the system supposedly I guess, not go. I put the R60e side in the case where there is a place deep inside that did get wet not dry to try this when re - set it up again and now work on a backup with Linux Maya R31. Thank God my R60e had an account Copy.com who constantly backs up your files to use to! Since the entrails were remarkably dry, would be - this coffee is infiltrated deeply a small area around the fans and something that is still recoverable short-circuit?

    Can anyone make any recommendation that I can try in the meantime? Please - my pennsionn cannot afford a new machine or most anything else, this season or after.

    Would be really grateful for any help!

    A user of Thinkpad Galant to Thinkpads comes to me with her encouraging advice! Bless the guy!

    Unlike the surprising YouTube Thinkpad dip demos, it took a LOT of sober takes with this key combination to get the system lights, including a false alarm of heart-sinking when it starts and died shortly after Windows has started to start! The left keyboard keys were a bit sticky but my coffee don't have sugar--(que j'ai lu est notoire àles claviers), just equal, but perhaps by tapping on it released a constant position of lower down. It stings my curiosity as to how and what triggers the system to 'only' need of a reset instead of the new motherboard after such a near disaster. Was it recovering from a short or a stuck switch or something else? I always find it fascinating that despite everything that spilled coffee that the jury under the keyboard still has dry except some wet and drops in the fan area where the keyboard took the main blow. ThinkPad more users should be informed about this ultimate technique of bacon-eve!

    Thanks Thinkpadders!

    Whenever I open my Macbook to sleep or completely turn it on, it has a green tint / haze to it. The above is green, the sides of the screen are green. However, it disappears after 10 minutes. At the moment it is perfectly fine. The screen is the perfect color, it should be.

    I have not dropped, spilled coffee or something like that. Sometimes I slide it clean with a cloth Microfiber, but very gently.

  • A reversal of liquid causes a shift?

    I spilled coffee in my macbook and I took it in the Apple store and they told me that there was no sign of liquid damage, but there is a lag, which, they think, might have been caused by the spill of liquid? How can this be? Can someone explain this a little better? The associate has said me that there is nothing to worry about, however, should I be prepared for something to stop working on the road?

    There could be a problem if liquid came into contact with the logic board.

    If possible, take your Mac a different Apple Store for a consultation.

  • Satellite R850 - battery and the question of the burden

    I HAVE A TOSHIBA SATELLITE THAT I BOUGHT FROM AMAZON AND IS NOT GUARANTEED. COFFEE SPILLED ON IT WHILE I WAS DOING SOME WORK AND HE DIED.

    I LEFT DRY AND WHEN IT WAS LIT, HE WOULDN'T COME, I TOOK IT TO A STORE OF THE LOCAL COMPUTER WHERE IT WAS CLEANED AND TOLD ME TO GET A NEW BATTERY, BECAUSE THE BATTERY WAS BAD, SO I HAD A BATTERY ON EBAY.

    THIS TIME, THE PROBLEM WAS that HE CHARGE FOR a MINUTE AND THEN STOP TO LOAD. I DECIDED TO TRY THE BATTERY WITH THE LAPTOP AND FOUND SUPPORT FOR 2 MINUTES SAME AND OFF. THEN I CONCLUDED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS NOT THE BATTERY, BUT MAYBE THE MOTHERBOARD. BUT SINCE IT IS A NEW LAPTOP I WAS ADVISED TO JOIN THE TOSHIBA ONLINE FORUM, SO THAT I WILL BE DIRECTED TO WHERE THE PROBLEM WOULD BE SOLVED PERMANENTLY.

    PLEASE COULD ALL HELP. I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL...

    Thank you

    > BUT SINCE IT IS A NEW LAPTOP I WAS ADVISED TO JOIN THE TOSHIBA ONLINE FORUM, SO THAT I WILL BE DIRECTED TO WHERE THE PROBLEM WOULD BE SOLVED PERMANENTLY.

    What to say; the coffee spilled on the laptop and any fluid is not really good for an internal parts especially for the motherboard.

    I have no idea what part exactly damaged by spilled coffee, but it looks like a part of the motherboard is affected. Perhaps is the electronic power supply defective?

    I think that the laptop needs a verification and don t ask any technicians Nick fans because these guys just talk about possible problems.

    The device must be checked by a professional technician (service partner chartered Toshiba in your country) which has special tools and diagnostic software.

  • Need new keyboard for Satellite U500-1F4

    Hello
    I was visiting my friend in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, it has a Toshiba Satellite U500 - 1F4 Laptop, the subtemplate is PSU9ME-OOCOOXAR

    She bought while working in Dubai, Saudi

    She spilled coffee on the keyboard, and of course, it now does not work correctly.
    I thought that it would be possible to remove and just wash it in hot water, perhaps to dissolve the coffee, but it does not work. There are six or seven key doesn't work is not on the keyboard.
    The rest of the laptop is great, no problem.

    I am now back in the United Kingdom, and I will try to find a keyboard for it. There is a lot on eBay and other places, but whenever I do a search for its model I get nothing.

    The numbers on the back of the keyboard are:-

    MP - 08H56A06528

    09K37200523M

    OKNO - VGIAR0209493000523

    I found various models U500 and U505 keyboards, so one of them would be?

    Thank you
    Geoff

    On eBay you can find so many keyboards. Just find one for U500 and it will fit for sure.
