If your Toshiba laptop is not under warranty anymore and you have decided to open and repair it yourself , then you should know how to find a part number for the laptop part you want to replace. Almost every part and cable in Toshiba laptops has its own part number and should be replaced only with the same part or a substitute part. To find the part number look for a sticker or for a sign on the part. Toshiba part number would be something like V000040870, A000004270, P000343780, etc. After you find the part number you can search here.
If you cannot find a part number for your Toshiba laptop, I can help you. Just leave me a comment with the part name you are looking for, the laptop model name and the laptop model number. For example: laptop model name Toshiba Satellite A75-S211 and laptop model number PSA70U-0WK00G. This information is located on the sticker on the bottom of your laptop.
I would be able to help to find a part number only for laptops sold in the USA.
Here are more tips for finding a correct part for your notebook.
UPDATE:
I just started a new project – free laptop repair related classifieds.

Hi CJ,
I have a Sat. M30 (PSM33C-YSJ00E) purchased in Canada, got problem a week ago.
Green power LED is on but when On/Off button pushed, it runs for a few seconds and stops.
There is no screen at all, even with an external monitor.
Is it related to Mainboard or CPU??
Any suggestion is appreciated.
Many Thanks,

bhavesh,
There should be instructions on the Toshiba website.
Basically, you download the latest BIOS, then click on the file to unzip, select the method of installation (from floppy, CD, Windows). Just make sure your laptop is connected to the AC power all the time.

Carlos,
I checked the part number and it’s listed for only one laptop – Satellite M45-S269.

Can you tell me which Toshiba Satellite laptops use the V000080280 Mother Board? I have the M45-S2693 and I need a mother board and I am looking for used laptops that use the same board.

Gregory,
Sorry, I cannot help you with the Canadian model.
The best way would be removing the screen (it takes about 10 minutes) and searching for the part number on the back of the LCD. After that you can find a new screen using the original part number.

Santo,
That sounds like connection related problem. If you removed the heat sink, it’s possible that you pulled the CPU from the socket. Remove the heat sink and reseat the CPU. Make sure it’s locked inside the socket.
Also, check the memory module. Make sure it’s seated correctly. Reconnect the memory module.

The display on our Toshiba Satellite A100 model # PSAANC -VA305C is very broken. I’m using my NEC external right now.
I’m in Ontario Canada and would like to look for a good used replacement localy if you could shoot me the right part numbers.
The wife won’t let me open it up until I have a new one sitting here.
Thanks.
