    How can I connect my adapter power to the six pin "Accessory Battery Connector" on the laptop's bottom?

    I can't find a pin-out for this six-pin connector. My receptacle is corrupted on the back of the laptop. HP 8510W.

    I've disassembled and inspected and all the connections are fine on the board. I was finally able to inspect both sides of the board but all looks solid. I believe this is a multi layer PCB and the broken connection may be irrepairable (between layers).

    So the next option is to utilize the six-pin accessory battery connection on the bottom...... (number two below)

    Here is the "extended life battery" available for my model. Assuming the six-pin pin-out is the same among models.

    Anyone know where I might come upon a pin-out for the battery or laptop connection?
