R32 EEPROM you treat
it as 24RF08
Locating the R32 connection points
Switch the R32 OFF.
You should have downloaded the hardware
Maintenance Manual already, if you have not done so,
Download and save to your PC the R32
Hardware Maintenance Manual from my TP
HM Manuals page



NOTE: VCC is NOT connected, the ThinkPad
supplies power to the eeprom later on we will switch on the TP to
analyse the eeprom.

The photo below shows a 24RF08 EEPROM from a DIFFERENT
MODEL ThinkPad with the Pomona clips attached to SCL and SDA pins.
See my page on Options
for Clips and Probes including making your own probes.

Assembling your TP
You need to re-assemble your TP as you will have to
have it switched ON and running to read the eeprom.
Follow the Hardware Maintenance Manual [FRU System
Board], very carefully, double check screw type and size for each
individual module. Assemble the TP in the reverse order used to
dismantle it.

Disclaimer
I make no warranty that any of my
information is correct, or safe, or does or does not breach any warranty
clause, or anything else, it is up to you to decide if you will
follow all or any of the instructions to recover the Supervisor Password
from a TP. It is up to you to decide, I am not responsible for the
results or for any consequential or incidental damages whatsoever.
