Einleitung

How to replace the battery of a Dell XPS 13 9360 laptop. The images and information in this guide were taken from this computer's service manual.

    • Using your fingertips, open the system badge.

    • Remove the screw (M1.6x6) that secures the base cover to the palm-rest assembly.

    • Remove the eight screws (M2x3, Torx) that secure the base cover to the palmrest assembly.

  2. 6IuTtlqeSgtJtfOw

    • Starting from the back of the computer, pry up the base cover using a plastic scribe (spudger).

    • Lift the base cover off the palm-rest assembly.

  3. 1LgycUAY2lKxXmtk

    • Disconnect the battery cable from the system board.

    • Peel off the tape that secures the speaker cable to the battery.

    I didn't have any such tape, took me a few minutes to figure out

    There was a little adhesive foam protective pad placed on top of the seam between the battery cable connector and cable receptacle on the computer. Peel off the foam pad in order to separate the connector from receptacle. It detatches simply by sliding it out from the receptacle body. This is easy by curling index finger resting the finger nail on top of the connector, almost like you would scratch an itch. (This was the only part of the repair that was challenging, because not obvious how to do it with the foam pad stuck on the connector.)

    • Turn the computer over, open the display, and press the power button for about 5 seconds to ground the computer.

Thank you for the guide! This was not too tough a repair and now my laptop is as good as new!

Took me about ten minutes to do this on my spouse’s laptop. The parts that took the most time were unplugging the battery and peeling the speaker wire tape. I suspect someone that’s never opened a consumer electronic before could get this fix done in 10 - 40 minutes.

I had some problems with the M2x2 screw on the lower left corner of the battery, which almost got stripped using the Phillips #0 from the iFixit kit. I had to remove the other screws first and then rotate the battery around the remaining one to loosen it a bit, then managed to unscrew it with the Phillips #1.

So impressed with the quality of the website, the clarity if the guide, the quality of the toolkit, all the packaging, and not least, the whole attitude and ethos of the company about avoiding waste and empowering self-help. A+, 5☆ rating all around.

Great.
My battery had already been replaced by a Dell repair technician, so I found I had to temporarily displace a taped pair of wires, otherwise no pitfalls.
Other than the case is razor-sharp - beware running the spudger along the edge that you don't cut your fingers!
