I need help here.
Connect SP pin.
I tried all the remaining pins with no success before posting here.
Did you try it in laptop?
It is locked for sure because Manufacturer Access is 0x8908
I tried the 1,2,3 pins as SP to no avail.
SP line marked on the PCB as "SYS" but chip is locked so it does not matter whether it is connected to ground or not.
This chip is not supported by Nlba1. But having in view it is Dell battery it could be tried full pcb exchange for another board which uses supported bq403xx controllers.
This the first time I see this pack so I have no spare board for exchange.
I expected something could be done by your side...
Did you visually verify the chip?
Post a photo of it.
This chip can't be unlocked over remote session.
Can be done locally in my workshop.
no luck for me here...
