Introduction
If your battery fails to charge or doesn't hold a charge long enough to be productive anymore, you most likely have a faulty battery that requires replacement.
To access the battery, you will first need to open your HP Pavilion 15-cd040wm by disassembling its back cover.
Before beginning, make sure to power off your laptop completely and disconnect it from any external power source.
