Watching this on my Dell Inspiron 7000 while I'm having a battery issue. This is very helpful, thank you.
what was the issue?
@@arnavc4993 It drains so fast. Just found out that the charging adapter was faulty. Try changing the adapter first before replacing the battery for issues like these.
Thank you! I was waiting for my husband to do this for me because he told me that he wants to do it. Well, I got tired of waiting I think it’s been 3 months since my battery arrived. It was very frustrating because my battery was at 0%. It’s a piece of cake through your help.
Thanks! I've been "lame" and waiting on my hubbie to do this for me. Finally decided, "I'm smart enough to look this up and do it myself!" Now the fun part - ordering it and putting it together and surprising him!
You can do it!!
Thanks for showing how easy this is! I'm going to help my mum swap out her battery and save her quite a bit of cash.
Thank you for making this video. No doubt it will help a lot of people decide to tackle this job themselves, with the confidence that they can complete it. The fact that its real time, means it doesn’t gloss over any potentially tricky steps (glad to see there were none).
Your welcome!!
Thank you so much for this Video! As someone who was very nervous about opening up my laptop and messing about with it I was only able to do it because of following along with your video. 🙌🏻
Thank you so much. I was able to replace my laptop battery without issue following your instructions. It was much simpler than I expected.
Thanks for being my guide as I replaced my own battery! Definitely helps to have a project-buddy lol. I would’ve emphasized taking time on the lifting-back part though - I figured out along the way to use an old gift card to help pry it open without cracking/snapping anything off. Everything else was super simple though!
Glad I could help!
Thanks, it was an easy swap out but seeing it first was great!
❤ thank you so much for this! I'm elated my new replacement battery is working after your very helpful and easy to follow video.. I was quoted £150 and did iit myself after watching this. Very grateful 😊😊😊
awesome, just changed mine again for second time, they seem to last about 3 years
Thanks you Percy for show how we can change in this model of Inspiron P69g this Battery.
THANK YOU! My battery did the same thing. Your video helped me a lot!
My Inspiron is 6 years old (I know, I know! but in great condition…apart from the battery🙄) and just replaced the battery following your video. Easy peasy so BIG thanks.
Your welcome my new battery lasts about 4 years I just replaced it for second time
Good job..thank you. One of the main reasons I bought this laptop was because it is very easy to open and access everything on the motherboard, battery, memory, SSD etc. which makes it easy to upgrade/repair. One technical note: some folks may try to use a metal flat blade screwdriver to separate the cable from the battery: don't. Getting ready to replace my battery now too...
Thank you for doing this video; it saved me lots of money! I just changed my battery in 10 minutes without any issues.
Your welcome
This video is amazing. You saved me alot of money in the future.
Thanks Roy!!! Glad to help
Thank you - gave me the confidence to do this myself. All seems good.
Thank you for this!! Watching this video gave me the confidence to do this on my own and it saved me $55 from having to take it to a computer repair place!! 😊
Your welcome!!
You probably dont care at all but does someone know a method to get back into an Instagram account?
I was dumb lost the password. I would love any help you can offer me!
@Collin Joey instablaster =)
@Aaron Zayden Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Aaron Zayden It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my ass :D
This was a huge help! Thank you!!!
Thank you Percy - this is very helpful
Thanks for showing me how to do it! 👏🏻

THank you. A very helpful video!
Thank you. This was very helpful!
Tank you. Saludos desde Xalapa, Veracruz México ...
Mesmo notebook e mesmo teclado que eu uso , legal, obrigado.
This was helpful thanks. For me, I got 23% charge ( I got the battery from a European seller)
Thank you.. seems I can just purchase the battery and do this myself!!! Thank you
Спасибо тебе, дорогой Друг! заменил батарею и смазал систему охлаждения, почистив вертушки от пыли.
Thank you so much 😊
Very helpful!

Thanks man 😄
Just changed mine and only paid $30 for an original battery. I’m one happy customer 😀
Sweet!!! Great deal for you!
While you're in there replace the drive with a bigger one ,oh hell add more ram too. This laptop is one of the easiest to work on. Cool name btw. thanks for the video my friend .
Cool stuff. How long does your dell laptop last for? Coming up to 4 years now... battery lasts for 2 hours.
Hey! Loved the vid, btw how is the battery now, did u change it or if it is still the same battery from this video can you time the usage on your laptop and see how long the battery lasts, or do u have any issues what so ever with the battery? Tip: next time to really see if the battery works can you show us before and after the battery health.
its been a year since I changed it, lasts over 2 hours.... but when is starts to get low, it dies really fast.
Cuanto tiempo se tendria que dejar cargando, pregunto si sera como todo celular nuevo que hay que dejarlo como 5 horas.
Saludos amigo 👋
Hi. which Philip screwdriver did you use? I got a problem with two screws I can't remove from the battery. Thanks.
I used Phillips #1
Only the top 4 nails come out any recommendations
I have try opening the laptop twice and hadn't had any luck 😅. I want to make sure I can do it myself so i can order the battery
Easy to do once you open it , it has clips-and has magnets holding it together once the screws are out
hi I have a dell inspiron 14 7460 I just wanna ask if the wdxor battery for inspiron 15/13/etc.. also compatible for inspiron 14 7460? Thanks in advance!!!
I believe it does www.amazon.ca/ZTHY-Compatible-WDX0R-Replacement-Inspiron/dp/B01J1EG6PI/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=dell+inspiron+7460+battery&qid=1587489897&sr=8-5
Hi Percy, is the the 2-in-1 laptop with the touch screen?
Yes it is
Thank you!
I going to order mine... Dell wants to sell me one for 169.oo refurbish at that and 39.oo for shipping !
Hey, thanks for this. How has the battery health been over the last year??
Great 3-4 hours easily!!!
Battery is original? Because in my country there are different type and different price I don’t know what one of them original
how long did this battery last or is it still working ? how is it compared to the original dell battery ? thanks
It has lasted 3 years as of now but it does need to be changed again it will only last an hour or less after 3 years. Pretty much the same as the original lasted
Hi thanks for the video. Im having problems trying to unscrew because they get stucked.. any suggestions? Thankyou.
my screwdriver is magnetized on the tip, had no issue. hope this helps!
How do you rate this specific battery replacement? are you happy with the company and the quality of battery?
great works perfect
What kind of screwdriver did you use? Thanks in advance!
Size 0 or 1 Phillips head (+) the same size to fix glasses
Dell recently changed my laptop battery and now when i charge the computer, the led is not on. I mean it's charging but the led goes off. Do you know what can i do? Also when i put the cable in ,it takes a bit to start the actual charge. It's a weird behaviour
Which Led? the one on the cord? the one on the cord is all I see. and mine stay lights up as soon as it plugged in. and starts charging right away. you may have a issue with your cord then.
Hi, replace battery in accordance with video. Now have msg no battery detected. What should I do?
Double check you connections, it also may be software issue in bios beyond my capacity
how did u take out the back cover?? mine is like stuck
There are magnets, and small friction clips...start at corner with finger nails or plastic prying device.. make sure all the screws are out
Thank you, very helpful video. Do you have any problems with keyboard too? Hi from Jakarta, Indonesia..
Hey Jakarta no problem with key board yet
My batter was taped down to the blue strip next to the battery connection and that strip came off when I took it out. Does this need to be replaced?
The blue connector on the ribbon Cable does need to be reattached.
@@percyconnolly the blue part came out of the slot it was connected to on the motherboard. Does that need to be reconnected?
Hey so after we did this the mouse pad stopped working. What could we have done to cause this.
It’s possible you may in connected it.... where battery plugs in there is another connector.... in not certain that controls the mouse or not. But that is only other plug near where we connect the battery
Looking back at the video there are 3 blue connectors in close proximity of the battery I would suggest opening it back up and checking those.
Thank you we were able to figure it out.
Any clue where I can get a new AC adapter for this model, even dell seems to recommend the wrong one?
this is the one i have, www.dell.com/en-ca/shop/dell-45-watt-3-prong-ac-adapter-with-65-ft-power-cord/apd/492-bbof/pc-accessories?gacd=9683780-3008-5761040-266662033-0&dgc=st&gclid=CjwKCAiA57D_BRAZEiwAZcfCxdPDrUqJqNRKxhka0Vs9aimsqtYFGamqn8-vxMxIw3a4T-yq-45sehoCruwQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

hey, trying to fix my grandmas computer, where exactly did you unplug the battery, and how? im scared i will break/snap it
Don’t wiggle it it pulls straight off
I show how to plug it in a little later on video it’s simple
Does it require special small screwdrivers? Where do I get them.
It takes a size 0 Phillips head screw driver, hardware store or dollar store. Eyeglass repair kits generally have one too.
@@percyconnolly Thank you. I checked it already, and Walmart has some sets too. I am upset because I gave my laptop to diagnose and they put some scratches right on the center and on the back more. Ughh. I didn't scratch it for 5 years and they did it in 3 days. And then they told me the scratches were there. Where I know what was there, because I babied my laptop all this years.
Thanks, Just did mine "in real time" along with your video. Where do I send you a bajillion bucks?
Just FYI of anyone reading this. I saw that the original battery only had two screws; the ones nearest the edge of the laptop were never installed. I put the two back in and the battery is firm anyway. Also, note that Percy pushes the cover back on while listening for the clicking sound to make sure it's all the way down. I didn't do this on one side and ended up cross-threading a screw so, do that.
@@darrellhambley7245 Thanks for comments Glad to help!!
How long should i charge my battery for the first time once I replace it?
a few hours for sure, til it reads fully charged
So I have this same computer- battery was swelling so I ordered the appropriate battery on Newegg. Replaced it like in the video making sure it’s plugged in right and plugged the whole laptop in to charge the battery. However if I unplug the laptop it shuts off right away. So is it right to think either the battery is dead or I installed it wrong? I just checked the new battery again and it’s securely fasted and plugged into the motherboard. Just don’t know what to do next
It might be the battery another viewer thought he had everything plugged in but missed one I think there’s three things you unplug when you take it apart I would double check all your plug-ins before ordering another battery
@@percyconnolly when I unplugged the old battery there was only the small extension to the motherboard just like in your video. I’ll give it a look tomorrow though and see if I missed any plug ins.
@@kristiwisty I meant when taking the back off there are other plugs that may have been RE plugged in like the screen etc.
@@percyconnolly ok understood. When I took the back off there weren’t any snags it came off easily- again I’ll check tomorrow.
@@percyconnolly ok so i finally got the time to open my laptop back up and check the plug ins near the battery to see if any of them were loose/unplugged they all seem secure. I tried to run my laptop without the battery installed and it does not turn on at all. With the battery in, the laptop turns on and is functional, but again if I unplug the computer it will instantly shut off. I know this isn't the most intuitive way to troubleshoot so I may post my issue to a forum/ community to see if I can get a second opinion.
Nice vid. But how did the battery hold up? i know this video is somewhat old but hopefully you see this
It’s been almost a year and the battery still fine I still get 3 to 4 hours worth of use out of it for a cheap battery not bad deal
@@percyconnolly Sweet thanks for the reply
Could I use this for my gaming Dell G3-4 Gaming laptop? Or are they different? I am beyond nervous about doing this myself.
Similarly designed but I’m not sure
@@percyconnolly It was identical, so I had no issues. However, when I logged in, BiOS says my charger wasn't charged in. I used my orignal charger it has a blue circle that tells me its pulled in. Plus I let it charge for 12 hours, and it didn't charge. So my question is, would I need to get a new charger? The new battery is the voltage and everything that was written is the same minus the Dell on top of the battery. I saw on the battery that there were bubbles like the one you showed us on your old battery. I do not know what this means.
@@angelphoenix7784 there were issues with BIOs on some of these… double check your connections other viewers missed plugging stuff in on the RE assembly. The swollen battery means is expanding and probably shorting out internally
@@percyconnolly Is there something in BiOS that I can change? Today I took out the battery again, and put it back in. I made sure the battery plug was flush and tight. Now it wont even turn on. My brother told me, I might need a new power cord.
@@angelphoenix7784 not sure it’s beyond my expertise…
What screwdrivers were used for this task?
Phillips head (+ plus shape) size zero ) Teeny Turn makes them, slightly larger than one for Eyeglass repair. I think I mention it.

Thank you. Just thank you.
Your welcome!!
I opened all the screws and it somehow can't open
Like there is something still holding it back
There are friction clips and magnets use your finger nails or something to pry gently around the edges
Was the dell inspection really worth it? I don’t wanna pay that
I did not send to dell, for half the price I just bought a aftermarket battery and if that didn’t work then I would sent it out. The battery I replaced is still going strong and have no issues with it as of today
Hi man, can you turn on the laptop without battery? I mean direct into charging? Pls help im hopeless
I’m not sure Matt, your saying leaving in old dead battery and only plug it in? Or remove battery and hope it powers up with only charging cord? I think with the integrated battery it needs one in there for it to power up
@@percyconnolly so today my laptop wont turn on, i decided to check whats going on and i found my battery is getting bigger than normal. So i suggest my battery is the problem and then i remove the battery, plugin the charger but the laptop still died. (I want to know which part is broken, battery/charger/laptop) The charger is okay tho. Before buying a new batery I want to know wether my laptop can run without battery. My laptop is dell inspiron 15 Gold color (webcam is down below lcd). Can we have another conversation.. i am in problem
@@mattbellamy3967 Not 100% , but if it wont turn on with Battery in Place, I doubt it will run without a battery in it.
I think swollen battery is issue, you have have to buy a new one,
@@percyconnolly yeah i will buy a new battery, my battery looks similar to yours. Sorry, but can you try turning on the laptop with battery removed??
I replaced the battery, and now my touch pad doesn't work?? Any ideas?
Other people had issues with the BIOS after battery died. Beyond my expertise. I would look at the drivers if the touch screen has one? I don’t know
@@percyconnolly so it started off with the keyboard not working at all, then after i gave up and restarted it a few times, the key board started working by itself. Then somehow the same issue with the trackpad just seemed to fix itself after 40 minutes of trying to figure out what was wrong with it..
Computers...
what name keyboard?
Logitech key board mouse wireless combo for got from staples
Thank you for showing the video, but the background music is annoying over 10 minutes whilst watching.
thanks for the feedback, I will adjust future videos!!!
The 3 bottom screws are stock
Stuck?
Your arm blocks the unplugging of the battery
Sorry its only one little plug you can see it when I show the battery puffed up white connector
I wanted to see how to carefully unplug the battery. Your arm blocked the view!
You can see later in the video with me plugging it back in
!si, no bueno! lmao
Is it better to buy new laptop than change your battery
$70 some odd dollars for a battery and I’m still using the laptop daily or another $600 for a new laptop. Seemed wasteful as batteries are a lifetime part there is a shelf like to them
Turn off that damn music.
Haha I know!!
