    how much resistance is at SIO_SLP_S3 and SIO_SLP_S4?
    measure all the signals on Page 10 of the schematics file to see which ones are present.

              Now focus on measuring the RAM slot's pins.

                  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 Inspiron 14-5448 - fan turns off and mobo keeps running
                  by Felipe_Serra_83
                  Hi, everyone. First post of an actual repair. I'm a technician but a complete newbie with laptops.

                  So I got this Dell Inspiron to play with.

                  No charger, so I connected to my bench PSU.

                  The laptop also didn't include: hard disk (I added one of my own for testing, see below) and wireless PCB (but I doubt this could have anything to do with this particular failure).


                  ------What it did (and didn't do)------

                  1) I turned it on and it powered on. Powered down in 2 seconds by itself.

                  2) Removed RAM, changed slot. Same...

                  Dell Pro 13 Plus PB13250 Bios Unlock
                  by Akhlz001
                  Hi,

                  Could someone help trying to unlock this BIOS, seems that Dell have changed the layout of new Dell Pro 8FC8 bioses from checking HXD - 4000 bits do not need changing, only 2000. However after FF the section starting from '01000' upto 2000 bits and then soldering the chip back it seems that the microchip on the motherboard is recovering the bios back to original settings after first boot. Has anyone found a way to crack this extra layer of security Dell have implemented? Seems both HP and Dell have upped bios security to match Lenovo by implementing extra measures on a separate...

                  by master3112
                  I would like to share my experience about charging issues with Dell power supplies with the tech community. I am working on a Dell Inspiron 5590, Mainboard 18778-1 with charging problems. The device can be switched on and works so far, only the message appears at startup:

                  Alert! The AC power adapter wattage and Type cannot be determined. The battery may not change. The System will adjust the performace to match the power available.

                  The power supply unit is not recognized in the Bios and the charging process is set to "idle". I use original Dell battery, type...
