Wow that was one of the best video tutorials I have seen in awhile. Also, this has an actual pry opening where half the others I see the unit is already loose/separated. Well done
Replaced my laptop battery today. This video helped a lot. Thanks! Funny thing is that I was considering replacing the touchpad as well, because the plate was warped and pushed up out of the case. It still mostly worked, but was ugly and couldn't "click" correctly (I had to use taps on the touchpad to left/right click.), but replacing the battery actually fixed the touchpad as well. There was nothing wrong with the part, but the old battery had swelled up so much that it pushed the touchpad up out of the case. Now it is working like new.
Most Excellent! Used a guitar pick as the lid pry tool -- worked perfect. My replacement battery has a calibration procedure -- will now do that. Thank You!
Fantastic video for replacing the battery on my Inspiron 13 inch 7000 you were using the exact same model I was using right down to the battery number and CMOS
Thanks so much for this video!! Just finished replacing my battery and with your guidance it was EASY Peasy! Really appreciate the straight-forward info
Clear audio, simple instructions, and straight to the point! I just bought a new battery for my Dell and am definitely using this vid to avoid paying extra just to get it out in smh. Thanks
just some FYI... you didn't even need a pry tool... if you flip it upside down.. and with the hinge side away from you.. you reach over and between the hinges , you can just use your fingers and lightly pull up and it will come off... easily ... I just did one yesterday.. it was easy... and it had never been apart before..... Peace THE Z
Thanks for the help! I needed some guidance on prying the cover off. I ended up using a guitar pick and an old plastic card to shimmy around the edges.
Very helpful tutorial video. I have the same model but my laptop always turns off after waking up from sleep. I put it into sleep mode then I wake it up, running for a moment then suddenly it turns off. What is wrong with my laptop?
If the screw driver is fitting the screw head, then they should be undone but it might be they don't lift up as you unscrew them Maybe try and lift up the battery as you unscrew
I ordered the exact battery off Amazon (could not find it on the dell website) and followed your video to the T for the Inspiron 13 7000. When I first turned it on with the new battery inside it seemed to be working, however after charging it for a few hours it’s now telling me that the battery is at 0%, and I can’t use it without the charger. Is this just a battery issue? I don’t wanna keep ordering batteries, heading off to school in a week and want something reliable. Any advice? What should I do?
what screw driver did you use to get the screws off the battery. i've been trying for an hour with over 20 different heads and nothing will latch onto them.
Excellent video. I was able to replace it myself with this guide. Now, it's not working properly - it's been erratic since then. It turns on but then turns off abruptly a few minutes later. Any idea why this may happen?
hi Ricks Tech, thank you for your video! I have to choose which battery to buy, the original Dell is a little bit more than 100 usd, and an alternative around 40 usd. What do you recommend? thank you
@@ceciliabraun6494 hi Cecilia, I contacted Dell and they told me that they don't manufacture these anymore, can I ask tou where did you buy and how it went? Thanks!
Good Morning Rick: I have a Dell Inspiron 13 7000 model P69G001 and the battery needs replacement. Dell is quoting nearly 400 Can dollars to replace it as it 'is ' connected to the hard drive and thus needs a technician. Your video shows I should be able to do it myself. The battery alone is about 125 Can dollars. My unit seems a bit different but through the comments I think I can just pry the back off and get to the removal screws. Do you know if the model P69G001 that I have will be much different from the P83G001 in your video? Also will these batteries fall under the recall they had for their Sony batteries that caught on fire? My battery is getting enlarged. Do you have any advice for battery maintenance? Should I be unplugging this device every time the battery is fully charged, let it run down and then recharge it? When I took it on a 1,000 km hike in Spain I charged it up every day, then when I came home and edited the movies I made, I left it plugged in for 2 years only turning it off at night. Should I have unplugged it every night? Thanks for this informative video. glen
Hi Glen I find that to be a ridicules markup of a battery, yes it needs to be installed but it would take most people in the IT repair industry only about 15minutes You should be able do it yourself, if not see if you can buy the battery from dell with warranty and contact a local repair shop for installation i didnt know of the recall, but when you are getting battery bloat aka puffy battery, i would recommend removing it out of the laptop charging every night should be fine, i dont have really any recommendations for long term battery health sorry, unplugging the laptop from the AC Adapter overnight doesn't help much (maybe wrong but i dont believe it would)
@@rickstechrepairs Thanks Rick: I have purchased one off Amazon for 67 $Can about half their price, I opened the back of my laptop and see where I can take out the 4 screws and plug in the new one. Thanks glen
Thank you so much for this video, you just saved me on buying a whole new laptop bc I thought the trackpad had stopped working too but learned it’s just from the battery bloat. I have the same laptop make (P83G001) and am having difficulty finding the right battery to buy off Dell. Would anyone be able to share a link with me? (Hearing the ones off Amazon aren’t the best)
Hi I have replace my battery recently. It seems like there is no communication between my laptop to the new battery. I cannot turn on without AC charger. After turn on with AC, the battery can only hold for 3-5mins and it suddenly shut down completely itself. is there anyway to let my laptop communicate with the battery?
Hey, I have a dell inspiron 13 7000 2-in-1 that won't turn on. I plug the charger in a light turns on. When I try to turn on the laptop the power buttons stays on for a few seconds then turns off. Should I try a new battery or is it something else? Anything helps, thanks :)
I am with you on asking this question. I saw something online that said I should have a 42Wh battery, so I ordered one online. I just opened my laptop to replace it, and my laptop has the same 38Wh battery that was in this video!! Now, I've got to reorder the right battery !!!

You're welcome!
I'm having difficulty taking those tiny screws out that's holding the battery in place, any tips on getting them out?
If the screw driver is fitting the screw head, then they should be undone but it might be they don't lift up as you unscrew them
Maybe try and lift up the battery as you unscrew
@@rickstechrepairs I believe did this but to no avail. I'll try again. Thanks - everything else seemed very easy.
Terrific video! Thank you!

Buying battery's for laptops is a pain in the ass, always keep the original battery around
Send back the failed new battery
Very helpful! Thanks

what screw driver did you use to get the screws off the battery. i've been trying for an hour with over 20 different heads and nothing will latch onto them.
THANK U SO MUCHHHH❤❤

thank u!
Nice video. But i hope u turn if On the laptop after u replaces the old batt.. Anyway thnks for this.. c
Your welcome
Excellent video. I was able to replace it myself with this guide.
Now, it's not working properly - it's been erratic since then. It turns on but then turns off abruptly a few minutes later. Any idea why this may happen?
try the original battery back in there and see how you go
Thank you
Your welcome
I’m only able to unscrew 1 of the 4 battery screws. I don’t know why but I tried a different screwdriver and still unable to get them out. Any tips?
not sure why thats the case sorry
@@rickstechrepairs that’s okay. Thanks for responding
Any opinions or advice on where the battery is sourced? Should I buy it from Dell or would you trust a cheaper non-OEM part?
i havent had much luck with batterys other than OEM
Hi Rick Thanks. Just want to check with you , where do you get the right battery? and price please?
got mine of ebay local to me
hi Ricks Tech, thank you for your video! I have to choose which battery to buy, the original Dell is a little bit more than 100 usd, and an alternative around 40 usd. What do you recommend? thank you
Iv never had much luck with aftermarket battery's, so I would pay the extra for the original battery
@@rickstechrepairs Thank you very much for your answer, I will go and pay the extra money.

i dont have any suggestions for a replacement battery sorry
great to read you have fixed your trackpad
can we upgrade the battery of model( Dell Insp. 5370), For Example -> From 3cell 38Wh to 4 cell 56Wh . Kindly suggest .
not sure, i believe it should be possible
hello, how long is the battery life?
no idea
Where did you buy the battery
A store local to my area
It took me to the end of this video to realize I have the wrong battery🙃

After turn on with AC, the battery can only hold for 3-5mins and it suddenly shut down completely itself. is there anyway to let my laptop communicate with the battery?
i would suspect a dud new battery, connect up the old one again
Same thing with my laptop but with original battery . I’m watching this video hoping a new battery will work !
oh at 5:58... you need to get some WD40 on those hinges.....lol :)
It's basically my door charm now, which is handy when I'm out the back of the shop
Hey, could you please share the link to that battery?
Don't have a quality supplier of these to link to
what screwdriver are you using?

Hey, I have a dell inspiron 13 7000 2-in-1 that won't turn on. I plug the charger in a light turns on. When I try to turn on the laptop the power buttons stays on for a few seconds then turns off. Should I try a new battery or is it something else? Anything helps, thanks :)
try it with the battery disconnected. and the power cable connected
dont order a new battery
@@rickstechrepairs it needed a bios reset and now works 🙌
great, thanks for commenting back with an update
Please Sir how do I order for this battery online?
ebay, aliexpress, or a battery seller near you
How much should I buy this battery for?
all depends on your region, i would expect to pay $60AUD-$100AUD
What's a reliable place or website to buy this battery?
havent found many good sources for batterys sorry
@@rickstechrepairs where did you get yours from?
Isn't the battery 42Wh ???
There is a variety of different battery sizes
I am with you on asking this question. I saw something online that said I should have a 42Wh battery, so I ordered one online. I just opened my laptop to replace it, and my laptop has the same 38Wh battery that was in this video!! Now, I've got to reorder the right battery !!!
I also ordered 42Wh and have to return
what happens if I put the 43Wh itead of the 38Wh?
Yeah, real professional - not game to turn it on, leaves the question of was the repair successful.
Cheers
Aargh. Two of the screws won’t come out. That’s happened to me before when I tried to change phone battery. Forces you to go to a tech. Aargh
2 screws stayed in the back cover as you remove it
@@rickstechrepairs Yup. The two screws stayed in but the tech was able to remove the back cover.
Replaced the battery on my laptop that's going on 3 years, but the computer will not charge with the old charger or the new charger! Feeling defeated.
possibly a dud battery
Will it power on without a battery
It worked...thank you!
Great
