How to change watch battery dell inspiron 1525 HTWL

The watch battery is what helps store information for the bios.
This is how to change it out.

Leo P : I speak as a retired tech lecturer when I say that was an excellent presentation. Thank you :)))

[@vinnynguyen7009]

I just so happen to have one of those dental tartar scraper thing laying around, I used that to pry the battery out. Your tutorial worked like a charm, thank you!!!

[@charliewaugh3810]

Rather than prizing up the inside edge of the cover, I found it easier to prize up the front...the plastic section with the jack plugs pops out and there’s plenty access to get to the battery.. Would never have found it without the video though, THANKS!

[@user-sy2vf4rj5y]

Very useful video! Replaced the battery very quickly! I improved this method: to the hook, which was ejected by the battery, a large magnet and batteries were dangled after it came out of the nest hanging itself to the hook, and sweat was easy to pull it out! Similarly, a new battery was inserted into place by removing the magnet.

[@alexfsq]

Thanks for this method.This has Been so useful because other tecnichians dissamble all the notebook to change the battery.

[@oldroscoe2590]

This brought a dead 1526 back to life. Thanks, !

[@macmargaritas741]

Thanks to you I Have fixed my inspiron.... great and thanks again!!!!

[@yourockmethod2962]

Крайне полезное видео, а то собирался полностью разбирать, спасибо, 2021 ноябрь

[@RalfFleischhauer]

Thank you very much for this tutorial! Had to replace the battery of an Inspiron 1525. Now it is working perfectly again.

[@666rudolph666]

Great tip thanks for that. I've replaced CMOS battery few months ago it's took me about 45 min. I've strip my laptop last time. Today I've watched your post and replaced battery in 5 min (without 90° spike) My computer knowledge is very basic. Great post thanks

[@visionquest414]

what did you use without the tool he used?

[@DJayMichaels]

thanks for the video. there are other videos on youtube that require you to take apart the laptop entirely to get to the cmos battery. Your video saved me hours of work and took less than 10 minutes. I didn't have a right angle pick so I used a paper clip and bent the tip 90 degrees and it worked like a charm. I hope that replacing my cmos battery will correct the flashing caps and scroll locks LEDs.

[@anarkilp]

Thanks for turning a several hundred dollar repair into a quick and cheap fix. I can see you have made many geeksquad employees unhappy in the comments. thanks for the video!

[@therealDJG]

Was gonna do the other videos method until I saw yours. Laptop works like a champ now. Thanks!

[@carlosmanwelly]

Thank you very much, I looked at the other videos as well and thought there was no way I could do that, then I found this video. Battery was changed in 3 minutes.

[@artistmac]

Took about a half hour and some well-chosen swear words, but I got it replaced! Somebody at Dell did not want us ordinary folk to go anywhere near that battery. 😄

[@marknedza8664]

Hey, just wanted to say thanks, your shortcut saved me a pile of time with your 90 degree pick idea. Booted right up!

[@dennisweber1928]

This wonderful method also works perfectly for the AMD model, the 1526 Inspiron.

[@daltonburk70]

thanks this is a lot easier than taking the whole computer apart.

[@businessleo]

Rock on! I didn't think a paper clip would have worked. Thanks for the information, and I'll be many other people will use that info as well since a pick set isn't the most common thing to have around the household.

[@user-sy2vf4rj5y]

Дуже корисне відео! Замінив батарейку дуже швидко! Цей метод я вдосконалив: до гачка яким виймав батарейку приліпив сильний магніт і батарейках після того як вийшла із гнізда сама прилипла до гачка, і поті її було зручно витягти! Так само і нову батарейку вставив на місце знявши магніт.

[@dragoonxgears3123]

Thanks for the video! I saw other videos that wanted to take apart the whole laptop. Saved me a trip to my local repair shop. Great video!

[@imagerose]

Thanks a lot, it worked fine for me! And Yes, I'm still using a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop from time to time, as convenient when going in holidays, for not tempting somebody...

[@roberyoyox]

You save my life men! Thank you very much, my Dell is working now! ¡Saludos desde Chile!

[@alaorjr9515]

Hey guy, great tip to avoid opening the entire laptop, congratulations and thanks!

[@jamesDkane]

Great hint, saved me a strip down. Not so keen on the knife mind, I used a flat head screwdriver which was perfect. Thanks.

[@1967AJB]

Brilliant, thank you so much for posting, solved my problem, more difficult than you made it look, but then I didn’t have the dental pick. Thanks again

[@visionquest414]

what did you use to get battery out?what he used?

[@visionquest414]

Thanks for you reply back. Do you know anything about connecting to the internet. My desktop says there's no connection available. Clearly my laptop that I'm on now is connected to my wireless, but when I try and connect to desktop..there are zero connections available.

[@visionquest414]

and 1 more question I'm sorry,lol.. I have the dell inspiron 1545..don't know what you have, but what battery do I pick up.. don't want to get 1 that won't work with a 1545

[@1967AJB]

visionquest414 Sorry, not my area of expertise

[@visionquest414]

thanks anyways

[@stevanmanning1630]

Amazing short cut method! worked perfectly many thanks

[@dancetothemusic99]

Thank you, I could successfully replace the battery, although it is not possible with a straight pick in my opinion. A tick tong was my saviour.

[@josepasvid]

Thank you for this useful video. I changed the battery without problem.

[@smoothstate]

It really helped. Many thanks. Greetings from Ukraine!

[@geekchristian]

Thank you, felt a little risky bending up the frame, but it worked with my assistants (wife's) help! :)

[@TheAli220162]

Well done, by forcing the battery in from the wrong side you broke off part of the holder that keeps the battery in place!! Now it can pop out anytime.

[@deaneb5958]

worked great and only took 15 minutes!! Thanks

[@MrDigitaltech]

Good idea. Do not need to be a fully replacement. But, Circuit board should be in considered.

[@JorgeGarcia-kb8ie]

Excelente genio tengo la misma notebook y no sabía cómo hacerlo ahora sí gracias infinitas

[@Spamtrap2011]

Your method worked quite well but I used a 5.56mm cartridge to hold the case open.

[@businessleo]

Spamtrap2011 I tip my hat

[@just4therecord]

nice thank you. i didnt have any pick so i loosen a few more screws around the hdd and pry open the back cover the other way and got to reach the battery there. with the battery dead, even my bluetooth mouse wont work

[@Arduino-by-LAGSILVA]

Tks to share!! It saves a lot of time!

[@nadeemakhtar8245]

what a great video, tnx so much for helping us.tnx again sir

[@CMarkulis]

Thanks for this video, it helped a lot.

[@brodtheentertainergreen476]

Can I do this without losing any os or bios settings...just a simple switch?

[@graufuchs88]

Your video got the point across but there are so many better ways to do this

[@rhomis]

Thank YOU! I just saw "another video" that required taking the entire laptop apart for a coin battery that has a finite lifespan. I'll have to make one of those tools with the hook. *EDIT* I replaced the battery in 3 minutes. WOW! The laptop now works. What a stupid design, software and hardware. You'd think they would have the laptop still boot with a dead battery, at least in a DOS mode or a CMOS menu. As far as hardware access, why have a battery that will die out in a location that is almost impossible to get to?

[@samiraa1278]

Whats up, The best guide that I have saw was on Volt daddy (i found it on google) Probably the most informative info on batteries and this same gear that I have found.

[@businessleo]

it's in there fairly decently held down. A bend wire didn't work for me either

[@echantra9937]

This is great! Thanks for uploading and sharing. I am a complete novice so if I tried changing the battery myself, is there any risk of me damaging any working coponants? Also what size battery would I need to replace it with? Thanks!

[@Opium1000001]

Excellent and really its helpful

[@TNTChaos]

Is there a chance the battery could be soldered down? Cause i'm using a bent wire to try and pry it out and it doesn't seem to want to budge :(

[@7junkyard]

trying to open up the frame but one side is stuck.. this should work for dell 1545 right?

[@jaygames1980]

The top plate comes off with plastic pick and the right screws.

[@jsatv7443]

Thanks for the advice . It worked !

[@bytecompu6806]

Hola, donde presionas para que salte la bateria a cambiar? saludos

[@MaoMeza23]

excelente !!! pude cambiarla sin problema alguno. Thanks!!!

[@user-ep6fm7iu1g]

Thanks from Japan

[@lilynguyen1536]

I just changed mine, thank you!

[@jrvw02]

Excellent Video! Thanks

[@shakdidagalimal]

Ooh, that was slick and I found my right angle pick, so yes, it did work... HAHA Thanks

[@m.k.j.m9138]

Thank you

[@Ned98]

[@cornelioescipion9930]

Thanks Leo.

[@sidineibernardo]

Thanks..... : )

[@krdrichie]

will this method work to a dell inspiron 1545?

[@visionquest414]

I have same computer brother...Just ran in to same problem

[@katia1697]

Obrigada. Consegui trocar e economizei $$

[@AhmadAhmad-gh5op]

i love you thanks thanks

[@abmman]

Greaty video. tks.

[@davidbolha]

55 people missed the clock. 😂

[@66hju]

Worked for me, ...6 bucks and 20 minutes later, ...only lost one screw!

[@mlgdog1121]

When you have dell500 it more more More hard

[@douglaslofeu8027]

I like!!!!

[@razrsliq7623]

Step 1 take out your battery.

[@LaVolpe444]

OR... you can just fully open the laptop... Meh, that might just be me, not being a lazy fuck.

[@MargueriteFairProductions]

I do not think this is the right video. My battery is long and black

[@businessleo]

Marguerite Fair i think youre speaking of the primary battery. thia video is for the backup watch battery which provides energy so information is not lost when the long black bettery is removed. thus one has a long black battery as well

[@MargueriteFairProductions]

Well, that makes sense.

[@iscott8466]

Проделад этот трюк, илон Маск фигня

[@MichellCordeiro]

Thanks!!
