battery test logic state: corrupt capacity for K104 battery outside HP

[netsur4]

I purchased a K104 replacement battery from a vendor outside of HP. It appears to work fine, but the HP Battery Check reports "Logic State: Corrupt Capacity, Charge State: OK." Is there something wrong with the battery or is this message a default HP reports when not a battery purchased through HP and they are not willing to elaborate on details. I don't see why you cannot provide better details, preferably regardless to whether battery was purchased through HP or not.

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

Third-party or aftermarket parts, hardware components and software are not tested by HP. 
I have a few troubleshooting steps we could try to fix the issue:  

Run hardware diagnostics test on battery and Charger:

Use the following steps to open the Component Tests menu.

1. Hold the power button for at least five seconds to turn off the computer.
2. Turn on the computer and immediately press Esc repeatedly, about once every second. When the menu appears, press the F2 key.
3. On the main menu, click Component Tests.
4. The Component Tests menu displays. Your Component Tests menu might be different, depending on the components installed on your computer.
5. To run both tests simultaneously, in the Component Tests menu, click Power Source, and then click Run once. Each component can also be tested individually.

AC Adapter Test:

The AC Adapter test provides an interactive test to determine if the AC power adapter is functioning properly. A good battery is required for this test. Before running the AC Adapter Test, HP recommends verifying that your computer can receive power by connecting a known working AC adapter.

Follow these steps to perform the AC Adapter Test.

• In the Component Tests menu, click Power, and then click an AC Adapter Test.
• Click Run once.
• The AC Adapter Test begins.
• When the test is complete, the results are displayed on the screen.

Battery Test:

Follow these steps to perform the Battery Test:

1. In the Component Tests menu, click Power, and then click Battery.
2. Click Run once. The Battery Test begins.
3. When the battery test is complete, the results are displayed on the screen. For additional battery information, click Battery Details.

If the test passes, continue with these steps:

1. Go to Start, search for Device Manager, and open this result.

2. Expand batteries.

3. Right-click on the ACPI option (usually the 2nd option) and select delete or uninstall. Follow the prompts.

4. Shut down the computer. 

5. Disconnect the charger.

6. Remove the battery.

7. Hold down the power button for 1 minute.

8. Insert the battery only.

9. Attempt to turn the battery on.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
