4.If the voltage is more than +11.0 V dc, measure the resistance between battery terminals 5 and 7. The resistance must be 4 to 30 K Ω. If the resistance is not correct, replace the battery pack. If the resistance is correct, replace the system board.

Checking the backup battery

Do the following:

1.Power off the computer, and unplug the ac power adapter from it.

2.Turn the computer upside down.

3.Remove the battery pack (see “1010 Battery pack” on page 50).

4.Remove the backup battery (see “1130 System board assembly, fan assembly, and backup battery” on page 65).

5.Measure the voltage of the backup battery. See the following figure.

Wire

Voltage (V dc)

 

 

Red

+2.5 to +3.2

 

 

Black

Ground

 

 

If the voltage is correct, replace the system board.

If the voltage is not correct, replace the backup battery.

If the backup battery discharges quickly after replacement, replace the system board.
