Tecra 500 - replacement RTC & battery backup

I have an old 500CDT which I want to give to a young grandson. I have not used for several years and 2 small batteries are dead. I have a source for batteries, but I can't get the case apart.

I removed all the screws and consulted each compartment to disassemble the case; It relaxes, but buy will separate. I don't want to force and break the case. Is there some hidden screw or bolt that I don't see? Help!

Hello

As far as I know this unit is almost 10 years old and you'll be very happy someone I can help you about this, before you wait long to try to contact the after-sales Service of Toshiba partner in your country. Perhaps a technician can help you about this.

Good luck!

  • Satellite P100 PSPA3A: Replacement of battery for the RTC

    I got an old P100 Satellite System for 3 years. Model # PSPA3A-01R00P.
    There is a problem with the clock that he fails to keep time / the correct date.

    I contacted my local Toshiba Service Agent inquiring on a replacement RTC battery and was advised that the cost would be $460.00 as it is necessary to replace a complete circuit where the battery is soldered in place.

    I guess it's the fault, even if the laptop does not indicate that the battery is defective.
    I can't simply afford to spend that kind of money to try to solve the problem.

    Any suggestions to remedy the situation.

    Hi Tim

    The replacement of the motherboard is always a costly affair, and in my opinion, you should consider various possibilities.
    In my view, that a mobo of second hand could be an option for you.
    I mean you could google or look on eBay for some laptops second hand P100 with a motherboard works.
    I think it would be much cheaper than new.

    But listen buddy maybe a RTC battery replacement is not necessary. Maybe the CMOS battery is empty and can be recharged.

    AFAIK, you can reload the RTC battery runs the laptop for about 18-20 hours.
    Connect the laptops battery and adapter to the machine leave it connected for a longer period.

    I wonder if it will help regards

    Eh, it's that old laptop model.
    I presume you have disassembled the machine full, right?

    RTC battery is placed on the system board. For the RTC battery free you need to disconnect the speaker of PJ16 beam. It is covered with adhesive tape. RTC battery is connected to the PJ12. It is covered with insulation of RTC.

    I hope that this some info will help you find the way to remove the RTC battery.

  • Satellite P100-423 - RTC battery replacement

    Hey,.

    Are you sure that the RTC battery is replaceable?
    I ask this question because as much as I know it is not possible on all s models and if it is replaceable you can find the specs on the battery itself if you disassemble the laptop.

    Normally, this battery can be charged if you leave the AC/DC adapter plugged in for 24 hours. Have you already tried?

  • Portege R100: RTC battery replacement

    Problem: On my computer laptop Portege R100 the RTC battery needs to be replaced (laptop loses date and time system start-up after having done automatically stop when the batteries were empty).

    Question: I am trying to figure if this RTC battery is easily replaceable, i.e. I can order it from my dealer and can their technician quickly/easily replace the battery or is this battery soldered to the motherboard and replacement has so to do by Toshiba technicians, which means that my laptop will be gone for a few weeks?

    Thanks a lot for any input.

    Hello

    As I know the RTC battery is not soldered on the card mother but only connected with the cable. To remove the CMOS battery, you have to disconnect the cable from battery RTC PJ8760 on the system board and remove the battery from the RTC to the RTC battery.

    All that s. But if you have no experience in these things you shouldn't t replace yourself. The safe option is to contact the Toshiba service partner to change the battery. Here, you can also order one compatible

  • Re: Tecra A8 RTC battery?

    National parts lists one battery Cmos/RTC for my laptop (8312) Although on my replacement card, there is no battery. Could be the cause of the stuck up cooling fan?
    I read that Toshiba is using capacitors instead of the CCF.
    Can someone help me with this?
    Thank you

    Hello

    Why the RTC battery should affect the cooling modules?
    There is no link between the cooling module and the RTC battery.

    Cooling modules are controlled by fan table stored in the BIOS.

    Go to Page 49, he'll show you the replacement procedure.

  • RTC battery is low or CMOS incompatible chksum on a new Tecra M4?

    Hello

    I bought my Tecra M4 in November, making it relatively new.

    Since then, I got the following message to the ignition on four occasions:

    RTC battery is low or CMOS checksum is inconsistent *.
    Press [F1] to set Date/time.

    Why is it that happens on a new laptop? And with relatively long intervals (4-6 weeks)?

    Is that what I can do to check for hardware errors?

    I prefer not having to send to my computer right now (reviews of spring to come to the top and from one month summer session).

    Any help/ideas are appreciated.

    Kind regards
    Thor

    Hi Thor

    As far as I know is not a hardware problem. Connect the camera to the power adapter and leave it for 20 to 24 hours.
    I hope you use it very often and the battery can be charged at all times.

  • Re: Replacement CMOS / RTC battery for Satellite A200-244

    Hello

    I'm after a replacement of the RTC battery for my A200-244

    I had my machine open and find the battery, but there is no model number on it.

    I read the post by saying that the battery is part of the Commission and the Council must replace, but if I had a model number for the battery I could very easily unsolder old and replace with new

    Any help would be great!

    Hello

    What s wrong with the RTC battery? Is it empty?
    The RTC battery can be charged by the adapter or the main battery while the computer is on. You must charge the battery 24 hours long.

    In addition, it seems that the A200 series uses the 3.0V (14mAH 17maH) RTC battery
    I found some that support these values.

    Battery RTC (Maxell ML1220T10)
    Battery RTC (Maxell ML1220HT10)
    Battery RTC (Sanyo ML1220T28)
    Panasonic ML1220/B of the RTC battery

    But to be honest, it could damage the whole motherboard while trying to remove these batteries as mentioned in other threads his welded so I might be really complicated

  • Satellite 300CDS - RTC battery replacement

    Hello

    I think that the RTC battery in my old laptop satellite 300CDS died and I want to replace it, because the date system is lost if I don't use the computer for a while. The battery itself seems relatively easy to find on online shops (Varta standard part).

    I did, however, find a manual with enough detail on how to "disassemble" the computer without the risk of damaging it.

    Do you have such a guide or manual?

    Thank you
    Maxim

    I think this RTC battery replacement is a bit risky and you should be careful, because you could damage other parts.
    If you don't know how to replace these batteries, you should always ask a technician for laptop for support and assistance.
    In most cases, this service is not very expensive and you can be sure that your computer will work correctly after this procedure.

  • Portege M100 - how to replace the RTC battery?

    Hello, my Portege M100 RTC battery is flat. I managed to order one of the internet, but I can't locate. I disassemble almost every part of the computer, but if someone could just guide me and give the procedure to replace, that would be great. Thanks in advance!

    Hi friend

    It s easy to replace the RTC battery on your machine. I already did and I had no problem when replacing, I mean it's a bit difficult to find the batt. but I will give all that to my experience. ;)

    First look at the wireless lan card, West a slot under the slot lies the minipci wlan card. Near the wireless lan card slot is somewhat on the cover, this cover must be removed (quietly). The RTC battery is located in a white insulator, but before you peel this small battery, you must disconnect the battery from the motherboard. After unplugging it, simply lift the RTC and place a new.

    That's all, unfortunately I can't serve you with some photos, so you'll have to imagine yourself. ;)

    Good luck and welcome

    P.s.: If you feel uncomfortable by replacing the batt, then ask some tech to help you.
