0210 ERROR STUCK KEY 1F

Got an error message as above when i re boot my ThinkPad T500, the laptop keeps beeping, press ESC, it's able to boot up but while opening any work/txt docs, it'll keep typing "s" letter and number "2" no longer works, do i really have to replace my keyboard? 

Is your T500 still in warranty? If it is then contact support and get it checked.
If its not in warranty, you can try to reseat the keyboard cable and see if it helps.
Thanks

    ctrl -alt- delete to restart.
    then  it comes right back to the same screen
    If I go to the bios there is no option to reset to defalt.sometimes I get the messade error stuck key 01 sometimes stuck key 43
    I have replaced the keyboard after seeing if there was one key which acually was depressed, but no , no key is pysical depressed or stuck so it must be a software problem.
    How do I fix this problem.
    An idea anyone
    thanks a million
    All the best

    Can you gently clean the keyboard connector on the motherboard with isopropyl alcohol?

  • Error 0210: stuck key 2b - t61 thinkpad + windows 7 32 bit

    When ever I switch on the system i get this message error 0210: stuck key 2b". If I press esc key then it boots to the os windows 7 and also after booting up, if I open any ms word doc, the # key gets pressed automatically and I could see continous # characters getting typed in the doc. THis has started only after installing the w7 in my thinkpad. Can anyone suggest me if this is an os problem or keyboard failure. THis is repeating even after I clean the keypad and then turn on. This is happening in bios as well, I get a continous beep sound even in the bios as if some key is getting pressed all the time. So please let me know do I have to change the whole key board or just reseat the connection or something else is pending. Please help me, I am wondering why this problem has started immediately after I installed the window 7. If its an os problem, y am i getting the beep sound in bios, so i think its definetly not the os prob. Something wrong with the keys is it not. Any suggestions or tips are appreciated, I ran the HD diagnostic, it passed.
    THanks,
    Solved!

    manu555,
    If this is occurring in BIOS as you note, that rules out anything having to do with the OS.   As GMAC-R60 suggests, this points to the keyboard being bad, or having a bad / intermittant connection to the system board, or something on the system board going bad.
    I would try:
    Checking the physical keyboard connection:
    Remove and unplug the keyboard - inspect the keyboard plug for any visible corrosion or damage.  Plug it back in carefully and try again.  If the problems are still occurring, then try..
    Clearing CMOS and resetting BIOS defaults - sometimes you get some stuck bit that causes an abnormal state:
    Remove battery & AC adapter.  Press and hold the power button several times for a count of 5 each time.   Re-attach AC and restart the computer.    Go into BIOS and reload factory defaults and save.  (there is a option to restore factory defaults).  Shut down.  Put in your battery and restart.
    Try replacing the keyboard - you can contact service and order a replacement keyboard outside of warranty, or source on from a local business partner (if there are warranty authorized resellers in your area, they will have the keyboard in stock, or be able to order it).   Or, check online sales - ebay, etc as you wish.
    If none of these steps resolve it, then my next suggestion would be the system board, but I think that is rather unlikely.
    Best regards,

  • T42 error code 0210: Stuck Key FE

    I received this computer for chistmas as an IBM certified used equipment. It had been working great until last week when I needed to print out a homework assignment.
    When I powered it up I received the code 0210 stuck key FE. All the keys seem to be free for use. When I get it to the windows xp sign in window the track pad, track button, and key pad do not function.
    Is the computer fixable or worth fixing?

  • When booting I get an Error 0210: Stuck Key 01 Lenovo Thinkpad

    Hello,
    When powering on I get this error 
    "Error 0210: Stuck Key 01
    Press <F1> to Setup" Please give your valuable suggestions. Thanks in advance. Sukumar

    Hi Sukumar,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    I’m sorry to hear that you are getting stuck key error in your Lenovo ThinkPad.
    Stuck key error means that one or more keys on the keyboard are stuck. It's possible that a liquid spill can also cause one or more keys to electrically "short" causing the error. Inspect the keyboard and check if any keys are mechanically stuck.
    If you're mechanically handy you can remove the keyboard, inspect any chances of damage or corrosion. Plug it back and see if error is still occurring.
    Reset BIOS to default settings. Perform Flee Power – remove the battery and any other peripheral device connected to the computer. Hold the power button for 10-15 seconds and then connect only the AC Adapter and turn ON the computer.
    If none of the above said helped to resolve your concern, I strongly recommend you to contact our technical support for assistance.
    Click here to open a link where you can select the country and get the exact contact support number. I’m sure they will be a great help.

  • T43 getting ERROR 0210 Stuck Key FF

    My laptop will not boot up outside the docking station.  Nor will it boot up when I have it docked unless I have a PS2 mouse attached.  Outside the docking station or without the mouse the ThinkPad splash screen comes up but doesn't go anywhere and the Access IBM key does not work.
    BUT, when I plug in the PS2 mouse the boot up proceeds and shows the following:
    ERROR
    0210 Stuck Key FF
    Press <F1> to SetUp
    So, I press F1 and it goes to the Bios then I F10 and the system completes the boot process.  Yesterday I did a complete System restore to Original Manufacturer settings to see if that would fix my problem but it doesn't.  So, I have a laptop that only works when it's in a docking station so it's not very portable.
    Any ideas?

    I am reaching but, they way you describe it.... Sounds like a CMOS battery.  Cheaper than most options and possibly issue.
    when it is in Dock it is drawing power to devices - out of dock it holds the settings via battery - like I said it is a stretch but a cheap first step.

  • Error 0210: Stuck Key 1C

    When I try to log into my Lenovo X200 Tablet it starts to beep and I get "error 0210: stuck key 1c". It then tells me to press F1 to set-up. I do this then I am in an area I know nothing about.  Could someone please help me with this and please use language that a not-so-techie person can understand what to do. I thank you for reading this and look forward to hearing from someone soon.

    you may need to replace your keyboard. Try to reconnect the ribbon cable that connects the keyboard to the motherboard. Do you have warranty remaining?
    http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-70830.html
    Follow the above manual if you don't know how.
    If the problem persists after you did this, then you would need a new keyboard.

  • ERROR 0210: Stuck Key 36

    Hi all, I met this "ERROR 0210: Stuck Key 36" on boot-up in March, and was later told to upgrade the BIOS to 2.12, then the problem got solved. However, this problem starts to show on boot-up again recently, and sometimes I could logon to the Vista but it seemed that "Shift" is shortcut under Vista. Now I uninstall the whole keyboard and use an USB keyboard, then the problem is gone. Can I conclude that the problem is my faulty original T400 keyboard?
    Thanks!

  • T510 - Error 0210: Stuck key 45

    I get the message "Erro 0201: Stuck key 45" and then <Press F1>.
    I hit an Esc and login but, have keying problems with typing when the laptop is connected to the dock =
    mouse's first button does not show the menu;  if i press shift button i don't get caps; cannot type text in Google text box - the cursor keeps blinking  but shows no characters inspite of typing
    If i remove the dock, then most keying problems disappear but occasionally i will see a = character running across couple of lines without me hitting any key.
    Any suggestions will help.

    The message tells you, that the Numlock-key (keycode #45) hangs. Take a look onto your keyboard and check for foreign bodies.

    Usually this type of message means that one or more keys on the keyboard are stuck in the down position. You might want to inspect the keyboard to see if any keys are mechanically stuck. It's also possible that a liquid spill has caused one or more keys to electrically "short" and look to the BIOS as if the key is stuck.
    If you're mechanically handy you can remove the keyboard for closer inspection and cleaning. The Hardware Maintenance Manual for the T61 series gives detailed instructions on removing/replacing the keyboard as well as the part numbers for replacement keyboards. You can find inexpensive used keyboards on eBay, etc.
    Incidentally this post made me smile. This sort of problem and message goes back to the first IBM PC. I recall getting a BIOS message like "Keyboard error: Press <F1> to continue." The message was issued because I'd forgotten to plug in the keyboard into the system unit. This is a silly message because if the keyboard is disconnected or broken how is the BIOS going to detect that you've pressed the F1, or any other, key?
