    Dell 15 5566 RTC battery alternate connection

    The RTC battery broke off and carried the pads with it. I tried soldering the battery to some points I found after scrapping the board with no joy.
    Is there another area on the board where I can solder the battery maybe with jumper wires?

    Thanks

        If that's the correct schematic then the +ve wire should go to R2502 - work out which end of it is connected to D2501 pin 3 and then connect to the other one. The -ve can go to any ground point.

          Thanks for the reply. I did a bit more scrapping and found points on the board for the battery. I soldered jumper wires to the points and got the laptop to boot and retain the bios settings after a battery pull.

            Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
            by Bowline
            My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

            Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

            My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
            The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
            I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

            Dell G3 15 3500 - Battery bug (black screen and flashing keyboard backlight)
            by HTR-Informatique
            Hello,

            YouTube video of the problem encountered: https://youtube.com/shorts/q7TLNv36LUo

            I am a pro and I have a problem that I have never seen despite my 7.5 years of experience on my own and my thousands of repairs, on a customer's Dell G3 15 3500.

            On this PC I have already changed the complete palmrest because the keyboard was no longer working properly.

            I also changed the screen because the PC fell and the screen was broken.

            I changed the battery with a new and original battery.

            I also had corrosion/oxidation on the...

            Dell Inspiron 3542 (Cedar_Intel-MB 13269-1) - RTC battery self-discharging and Realtek LAN issue
            by danielsak
            Hello, I have issue with Dell Inspiron 3542.

            Motherboard marking:
            Code:
            Cedar_Intel-MB 13269-1
            PWB FX3MC REV: A00
            The laptop works just fine (on battery and power supply) and doesn't cause any problems, except those described below:
            1. The first problem is that the RTC/CMOS battery self-discharges after about 2-3 weeks after installing a new battery. I have been installing different batteries (GP, Duracell, Energizer) and the problem still exist.
            1. The second problem is the LAN network card (Realtek RTL8106E), which is not detected at all in Windows. The BIOS is

            Dell Precision 5510 " Not a Dell Battery"
            by tomodachi
            Hi

            Dell Precision 5510
            Mobo code : LA-C361P

            This one came in for battery replacement but without original battery, so original battery and charging history is unknown.
            The customer said he bought the computer several years ago second-hand and was told that there was no battery inside but that he could purchase one if he wanted.
            So we ordered a geniune battery for customer, plugged it in
            RTC battery was also dead and it was also replaced. First boot up brought up warning message;


            Funny thing is Service Tag is already set.
            And...

            Battery not charging - Dell Inspiron 3593 FD155 LA-JO81P (REV 1.0) (A00)
            by lawrenceptrini
            Hi Guys,
            I am seeking some assistance with a Dell Inspiron 3593 FD155 LA-J081P (REV 1.0) (A00) laptop
            The laptop is working fine with the adapter plugged in and also with a charged battery.
            Problem is that the laptop is not charging the battery. The battery is recognized in the bios but the
            ac adapter is listed as 'Not Installed'. So for instance, when a charged battery from another source
            loses its charge, it stays on 0%.


            Measurements taken
            Charging IC (ISL95522HRZ) 32 pins
            Voltage to ground with ac adapter only plugged in:
            1)...
