    If it reacts to hot air, should be bad capacitor, upload photo of area.

              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 Precision 5520 / LA-E331P r2.0 starting into CPU-failure
              by PeteH
              Hi everyone,

              I have here a broken Dell Precision 5520 / LA-E331P r2.0 to play with
              I found the schematics for r1.0, but not for r2.0.

              The situation
              - the laptop turns on, but the screen stays black -> the dell diag-LED shows the blink pattern for "CPU failure"
              - the voltages close to the CPU stay at low
              - I don't see any hotspots on the PCB (thermal imaging camera)
              - some spots/areas on the PCB indicate some kind of liquid "damage"

              Before I start digging though 70+ pages of schematics, maybe somebody...

              Dell Inspiron 5590 Board 18778-1 no charging, charging not possible
              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...

              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...

              Dell thunderbolt firmware, extracted from dell firmware update exe. Padded to 1MB.

              Some models have a choice of 2 different firmwares, it depends on the dell SKU.
              The SKU is in brackets (****)
