Replacement keyboard for ThinkPad T430 X230 T530

This US-layout keyboard fits Lenovo ThinkPad models T430, T430S, T430I, X230, X230T, X230I, T530 and W530. It includes a TrackPoint pointer and ships without backlighting. The part carries CE certification and matches compatible part numbers such as 04W2250 and 04X1277.

Black finish with ribbon cable and no backlight

The unit comes in black with an English US layout and includes the ribbon cable for installation. Build quality is tested by the supplier before dispatch. Daily use feels like the original board, though the lack of backlighting means typing in low light relies on external illumination.

Verify model and ribbon seating before ordering

Confirm your exact ThinkPad model against the supported list using the supplier part numbers provided. Installation must be performed with the laptop powered off. If keys do not respond after fitting, reseat the ribbon cable several times; this resolves most connection issues.

Questions about this item

Does the US-layout keyboard connect through the standard ThinkPad ribbon-cable interface?

Yes — it ships with a ribbon cable that plugs into the same ZIF connector used by the original keyboards on the T430, X230 and W530 series.

Will this black keyboard with pointer fit the palm-rest cut-out on my T430s or X230 Tablet?

The part is moulded to the 04W2250 / 04X1277 chassis dimensions, so it aligns with the screw posts and track-point opening on all listed T430, T430s, X230 and X230T models.

What is the most common mistake when installing this replacement keyboard?

Not seating the ribbon cable fully in the ZIF connector; if keys miss after first boot, power off, lift the latch, re-insert the cable straight and lock the latch again.
