You mean where do you find it to buy a replacement or where is it on the machine?

where is it in the machine because I replace the external 6 cell unit on the outside of my machine because it failed to accept any charging

HP Recommended

where is it in the machine to replace it

HP Recommended

primary battery is the large 6 cell battery. Are you getting a battery charging icon in Windows? Does the battery charge and run the laptop?

HP Recommended

yes but when I run the battery test it states no battery reconnized
