Checkout guide Terminal Voltage (V dc) 1 + 0 to + 12.6 (Li-ion) 5 Ground 3. If the voltage is less than +11.0 V dc, the battery pack has been discharged. Note: Recharging will take at least 3 hours, even if the indicator does not turn on. If the voltage is still less than +11.0 V dc after recharging, replace the battery. 4. If the voltage is more than +11.0 V dc, measure the resistance between battery terminals 4 and 5. The resistance must be 4 to 30 K . If the resistance is not correct, replace the battery pack. If the resistance is correct, replace the system board. Checking the backup battery The backup battery is rechargeable. To check the backup battery, do the following: 1. Power off the computer, and unplug the ac adapter from it. 2. Turn the computer upside down. 3. Remove the battery pack (see "1010 Battery pack" on page 66). 4. Remove the backup battery (see "Checking the battery pack" on page 39). 5. Measure the voltage of the backup battery. See the following figure. Terminal Voltage (V dc) + +2.5 to +3.2 - Ground v If the voltage is not correct, recharge the backup battery by connecting the ac adapter to the computer for one hour. v If the voltage is still not correct, replace the backup battery. 40 ThinkPad G40, G41
