Re: Apple IIgs - battery issue

The battery in my ROM01 IIgs is not charging, therefore the settings
are not being strored. I tested the voltage between the battery leads,
and it is 0 V in both ON and OFF state. My assumption is that the
battery could be OK, but it no longer receives any charging current
from the motherboard. Am I correct?  Is there any what to fix it?

It's not a rechargeable battery--in fact it may explode if you
try it!

Mike is right--replace it with an equivalent lithium cell.
