Perform operational charging. If the battery status indicator
does not turn on, remove the battery ASM and let it return
to room temperature. Reinstall the battery ASM.
If the charge indicator still does not turn on, replace the
battery ASM. If the charge indicator still does not turn on,
replace the system board. Then reinstall the battery ASM.
If the reinstalled battery ASM is not charged, go to the next
