    Dell 7420 wwan port disabled

    Hi everyone,
    I have two Dell 7420s with the WWAN port disabled, probably due to a BIOS lock.
    I tried installing two different cards in both PCs, but neither of them detects it in the peripherals. I've reset the BIOS and tried everything possible, but the problem persists.
    The same cards on other PCs I've tested work perfectly. Do you know if there's a way to enable it, perhaps directly from the BIOS chip I read about?

    Thanks in advance for help.

          Sorry for not carefully applying the forum rules, it is not very easy for those who do not know the English language very well.

          the service tag of this Pc that I attached the bios read is: 49BS2D3 version 1.41.1

          Of second similar Pc is: 3Y393D3 version 1.42.0

          Thanks for attention.

            Dell Lattitude 7424 Broken USB-C Port
            by Calum McConnell
            Hello!
            I run a dell rugged extreme as my main computer, and have linux installed. All is well! However, after plugging in a friends power adapter to test it (it turned out to be broken), my USB-C port has stopped working. This isn't the end of the world, since I can still charge with a good old-fashoned 19V barrel power, but I'd like to fix it.

            The port shows up to the operating system, but does not provide power to devices plugged into it, nor can it receive power. I have tried cleaning it.

            I strongly suspect that the physical port itself is damaged, and would...

            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...
