3. If the voltage is less than +11.0 V dc, the battery pack has been discharged.
If the voltage is still less than +11.0 V dc after recharging, replace the battery pack.
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 operational charging
To check whether the battery pack charges properly during operation, do the following:
1. Discharge the battery pack until the remained battery power is less than 50%.
2. Connect the computer to ac power to charge the battery pack. If the battery status icon in the Windows
notification area indicates that the battery pack is not charging, remove the battery pack and let it
return to room temperature.
3. Reinstall the battery pack. If the battery pack is still not charging, replace the battery pack.
4. Check the battery status icon again. If the same error still exists, replace the system board.
