Einleitung

If the battery is running low or does not work any more, use this guide to replace it.

For your safety, discharge your battery below 25% before disassembling your device. This reduces the risk of a dangerous thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.

    • Be sure to power off and unplug your device before you begin your repair.

    • With the screen face down, lift up the stand as far as it goes.

    • Make sure not to force it past the resting point.

    • Use a T5 driver to remove the six screws on the back of the tablet.

    • Flip the tablet on its back so that the screen is facing up.

    • Use the suction cup to carefully separate the screen from the device. Pull upwards with a fluid and smooth motion.

    • Do not lift too fast! There will still be wires connecting the screen to the device. Make sure they are not tampered with.

    Start with the suction cup centered on the edge (not on the right, as shown). The clips in the side corers of the screen are tighter than the center clips. As the screen bows out in the middle, the side clips easily disengage.

Thanks a lot for the information!

Santi Costa -

Thanks for the help. Successfully change my battery.

Christopher Rath -

One problem that people might run into is the device not recognizing the battery firmware if it is an aftermarket battery and not a genuine HP one. Where the device will work but only if it is plugged into the charger. It even shows the battery charging but very slowly. If you disconnect the charger the device will instantly shut off. What is the fix for that?

Adam Stansbery -

Why must the flex cable be disconnected? If you are able to secure the screen in proper position it does not appear that it would interfere with the battery change.

Na vervanging batterij aangesloten op charger, witte led knippert enkele malen en gaat dan uit. De batterij indicator in windows geeft niet aan dat er geladen wordt. Wat zou de oorzaak kunnen zijn?
