Laptop batteries can become faulty in as little as 2 years. Having a working battery is an essential piece to an efficient laptop, as the main function of the laptop is to be able to work away from home. Laptops with short battery lives can be extremely tedious as you constantly need to be plugging them in to an outlet.
If you have had your Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5-1570 for longer than 2 years and/or you are experiencing a short battery life, it may be time to replace your battery. Do not worry however, replacing the battery in this device is simple and requires little to no tools.
For your safety, discharge your battery below 25% before disassembling your device. This reduces the risk of a dangerous thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
Wat je nodig hebt

-
Remove the ten 5 mm Phillips #00 screws that are holding the back panel on.
-
-
-
-
Once all the clips have been disengaged, lift off the back cover.
You should probably disconnect the battery immediately after opening the laptop. Don’t want to risk damaging your nice hardware.

Using your fingers, grasp the entire bundle of wires to pull the battery cable from its connector. This will cut off power to the motherboard.
-
Remove the battery from the device.
My battery completely discharged and even plugging it in won’t power up my computer. I tried removing and replacing the battery, didn’t work, so I completely removed the battery and plugged it in, thinking that would isolate the battery as the issue, but still it will not power up, so I’m thinking it might not be the battery. Shouldn’t it work plugged in without a battery?
Any advice?

Hullo. In the pic on step -1, near the top left screw, the back cover is cracking up. Whenever, I open the Display panel, the back panel at this point shows tendency to open. The screw is obviously is out of its threading. Is this damage, physical or due to battery swelling. My battery life seems alright. After full charge, it stays for more than 30h with intermittent use. Can you reply to svnarasimhan5@gmail.com
Hello,
Thank you so much for the guide.
Have a question though, is the following battery compatible for Lenovo Flex 5 1570 (Type 80XB): https://www.ebuyindia.in/products/origin...
Appreciate your help.
I bought this battery to replace my old failed battery. The installation went very well. But I soon noticed that the battery and the charging adaptor were getting extremely hot every time I plugged it in. After 1 month the laptop stopped completely. There was absolutely no issues with the laptop before except the battery.
I would never go for an iFixit battery again.
