Therefore, I put the original card back and ensured that the two antenna wires are securely connected. There is no doubt now that the wires are secure, but the problem persists. Stupid question, is there any chance that one of the antennas is damaged? You might get slightly different behaviour if you swap them - if your X230 is anything like my X200, there should be enough slack do that. If it turns out that one of them is bad, you might be able to find replacements on eBay or Aliexpress, or in the worst case scenario just install a generic antenna. Hardware Maintenance Manual is here: https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/manuals/um014928-hardware-maintenance-manual and the steps to replace the antennas don't look too onerous.
