    Dear all,

    just want to make sure how many LED on the fingerprint reader of t410. Is it one or two?
    Mine is blinking only on the left side. But since the design is symmetrical between sides, is there an LED on the right side?

    Thank you for your confirmation.

    I think there are two.
    The one on the left is green, and stays on when the laptop is ready to scan.
    It blinks during scan, and when the scan is not successful the right one, which is red, turns on for a moment. I am not 100% sure though, never thought about it... I will check when I have access to it again...

    I just checked. My fingerprint reader has 2 LEDs. The one on the left is green, and when it's ready to scan it is ON. While scanning it blinks. When there is a scan error (like when I scan wrong finger), the second LED on the right blinks - and it's red.
