Replacement battery for Dell Inspiron 3000
This 14.8V 40Wh lithium-ion pack fits Dell Inspiron 15 3000 and 5000 series models including 3551, 3552, 5558 and 5758. It also supports Vostro 3458, 3558, 3459 and 3559 notebooks. The four-cell design delivers 2900mAh capacity for daily mobile work. Buyers needing higher capacity or a different voltage will not find those options here.
Upgrades worn Dell M5Y1K GXVJ3 WKRJ2 HD4JO KI85W
It directly replaces original Dell part numbers M5Y1K, GXVJ3, WKRJ2, HD4JO, KI85W, VN3NO and 451-BBMG when the old battery no longer holds a useful charge. The jump is worth it when runtime has dropped below half of the original 40Wh rating or the system shuts down unexpectedly. If the laptop requires a different form factor or connector, this unit will not fit.
Simple screw-access swap with safety certifications
Installation typically involves removing the bottom cover screws, disconnecting the old pack and connecting the new one in its place. The battery carries CE, FCC and RoHS certifications for electrical safety. Common issues include forgetting to disable the internal battery in BIOS before removal or misaligning the connector during reassembly. Users uncomfortable with case disassembly should seek professional help.

Questions about this item
Does the 14.8V 40Wh M5Y1K battery fit my Dell Inspiron 3551 without modification?
Yes. The battery is listed as compatible with Inspiron 3551 and 3552 models and uses the original Dell M5Y1K form factor, so it seats directly in the existing bay.
What is the correct order for connecting the 4-cell Li-ion pack during installation?
Align the connector key with the motherboard header, press straight down until the latch clicks, then secure the retention screw before closing the base cover.
After roughly 500 recharge cycles, will the 2900mAh capacity still be covered by the 12-month hassle-free warranty?
The warranty covers defects for 12 months from purchase; normal capacity loss after many cycles is expected wear, not a defect.
