Toshiba T2110/T2115/T2130/T2135 Series

Toshiba T2110/T2115/T2130/T2135 Series

Toshiba made things really confusing here - the T2110, T2130, and T2135 laptops are all identical. I've found the following models - T2110, T2110CS, T2115CS, T2130CS, T2130CT, T2135CS, and T2135CT. Each CS and CT model is identical to each other, and as far as I can tell the only grayscale model was the T2110. These were all 486DX4-75 laptops that were released in 1995 - to my knowledge, the only differences between the duplicates are what software they shipped with (and some other very minor things).

Common Faults & Maintenance

Hibernation Battery Leaks

These laptops have an internal NiMH hibernation battery. These batteries are highly prone to leaking, and should be removed. It is located in the bottom right, under the main battery, and thankfully somewhat away from the motherboard.

Capacitor Failure

The DC/DC section of the motherboard has a bunch of ELNA LongLife series capacitors in them - these caps are highly prone to leaking in machines just a couple years older than these. I'd recommend preemptively recapping them before they have the chance to fail and cause corrosion.

Brittle Plastic

The plastics on these laptops are very brittle, handle with care.
