Internal power cable for ThinkPad X220 and X230

This new internal power cable connects the CPU cooling fan and heatsink assembly in Lenovo ThinkPad X220, X220I, X230 and X230i models. It matches the original FRU04W1774 part number for direct replacement. The cable restores the power link between the motherboard and the cooling subsystem. Builders repairing a damaged or missing connector will find the correct fit.

Thermals, noise and power draw in normal use

The cable carries the low-voltage current required by the cooling fan, so thermal performance depends on the fan and heatsink condition rather than the wire itself. A secure connection prevents intermittent fan operation that can raise temperatures or cause audible speed cycling. Power draw remains identical to the factory specification. Buyers needing a complete fan assembly or a different FRU part will not be served by this cable alone.

Questions about this item

How do I install the FRU 04W1774 power cable inside my ThinkPad X220 or X230 without damaging the connector?

Remove the bottom case, disconnect the battery, route the cable along the fan shroud, and press the 4-pin plug straight into the motherboard header until it clicks; forcing it at an angle bends the pins.

When should I replace this internal power cable in my ThinkPad X220 or X230?

Replace it if the fan spins intermittently, the laptop throttles at low load, or the connector shows melted plastic or corroded pins after repeated thermal cycles.
