Replaced my laptop battery today. This video helped a lot. Thanks! Funny thing is that I was considering replacing the touchpad as well, because the plate was warped and pushed up out of the case. It still mostly worked, but was ugly and couldn't "click" correctly (I had to use taps on the touchpad to left/right click.), but replacing the battery actually fixed the touchpad as well. There was nothing wrong with the part, but the old battery had swelled up so much that it pushed the touchpad up out of the case. Now it is working like new.

just some FYI... you didn't even need a pry tool... if you flip it upside down.. and with the hinge side away from you.. you reach over and between the hinges , you can just use your fingers and lightly pull up and it will come off... easily ... I just did one yesterday.. it was easy... and it had never been apart before..... Peace THE Z

I ordered the exact battery off Amazon (could not find it on the dell website) and followed your video to the T for the Inspiron 13 7000. When I first turned it on with the new battery inside it seemed to be working, however after charging it for a few hours it’s now telling me that the battery is at 0%, and I can’t use it without the charger. Is this just a battery issue? I don’t wanna keep ordering batteries, heading off to school in a week and want something reliable. Any advice? What should I do?

Good Morning Rick: I have a Dell Inspiron 13 7000 model P69G001 and the battery needs replacement. Dell is quoting nearly 400 Can dollars to replace it as it 'is ' connected to the hard drive and thus needs a technician. Your video shows I should be able to do it myself. The battery alone is about 125 Can dollars. My unit seems a bit different but through the comments I think I can just pry the back off and get to the removal screws. Do you know if the model P69G001 that I have will be much different from the P83G001 in your video? Also will these batteries fall under the recall they had for their Sony batteries that caught on fire? My battery is getting enlarged. Do you have any advice for battery maintenance? Should I be unplugging this device every time the battery is fully charged, let it run down and then recharge it? When I took it on a 1,000 km hike in Spain I charged it up every day, then when I came home and edited the movies I made, I left it plugged in for 2 years only turning it off at night. Should I have unplugged it every night? Thanks for this informative video. glen

Hi Glen I find that to be a ridicules markup of a battery, yes it needs to be installed but it would take most people in the IT repair industry only about 15minutes You should be able do it yourself, if not see if you can buy the battery from dell with warranty and contact a local repair shop for installation i didnt know of the recall, but when you are getting battery bloat aka puffy battery, i would recommend removing it out of the laptop charging every night should be fine, i dont have really any recommendations for long term battery health sorry, unplugging the laptop from the AC Adapter overnight doesn't help much (maybe wrong but i dont believe it would)
