    Battery replacement - reset ?

    Hello!

    Quick question , i think this is the right category.

    Had a E6230 laying around, and wanted to get it back to life. The battery that had inside was completely dead.
    I have many 18865 cells on side, so i took it apart (carefully but somehow the plactics had to be glued again).
    The new cells are 4.19 , 2458mah , calibrated in external power adapter seperate (likala) , plugged them all together.
    And again the laptop shows 9.5% health .

    Searched around ,and i had to reset the controller as well,but i haven't done it in the past, it was my 1st try to replace the powercells.

    Do we have any way to "reset" the controller or re-calibrate the battery ?

    Thanks!

          Dang it!
          So i will have to leave it as it is, or replace it with a brand new.

              Some Dell Systems have programs for recalibrating batteries to accept a charge. This will run the battery all the way down and then recharge it completely. This will take several hours to run, so it is best to run it overnight. You should use the program for the specified systems only and using a program not designed for your system could void the warranty on the computer.

              * Latitude LM, or Inspiron 3000 or Inspiron 3200 systems use:

              BATRECAL.EXE

              * Inspiron 5000, Inspiron 7000, or Inspiron 7500 use:

              I75BRCA0.EXE

              * The Latitude LS, L400, and X200 and the Inspiron 2100 have battery recalibration options in the BIOS. This is on the Power page of the BIOS Setup.
              .

                      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...

                      by mferna14
                      Hi, my dear friends., Maybe this might be a stupid question or something I missed or do not know. I have 2 MacBook Air A2681 (Indentical color & EMC #), both LCD screens broken. Before ordering the LCD Screens I confirmed both worked with their respective batteries & AC Adapters, & they did 100%. The LCD Screens came in today & I replaced LCD for the 1st A2681. (Removed Battery Terminal cable for both Laptops before installation of LCDs). Perfect Screen & Booted up fine. But it did not work with battery. I checked the battery connector & it was seated in well/perfectly....

                      ASUS X571 no power : battery issue?
                      by mkdj
                      Hello everyone,

                      Mark and model: ASUS X571
                      Symptoms: not turning on. There is only the LED battery indicator working. The owner of the laptop told me this problem arrived one week after having changed the battery. He then managed to power on the laptop only once, and then it never powered on again.

                      Tests already made:
                      - Battery is charging when laptop is plugged in. The LED battery indicator turns white after a couple of hours of charge, indicating that battery is fully charged. However, laptop won't turn on anyway, with or without AC plug.
                      - I have removed...

                      by PITERPENY
                      brought in a working MacBook for battery replacement (swelled up). After replacing the battery it stopped turning on. tried connecting the old battery without changes. consumption with the battery connected and without the battery is the same 5v\0.200a on all 4 ports. replacing 9239 did not help
