It fits the 9420 2-in-1 directly, matching the original connector and BMS communication protocol. OEM part numbers GHJC5 and 0JJ4XT both reference this cell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLatitude 9420 2-in-1 fitment:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The 9420 2-in-1 uses a specific flat Li-Polymer pack at 11.55V nominal to stay within the thin convertible chassis. The BMS on this model handshakes over SMBus — a cell with mismatched firmware registers will flag immediately in Dell's battery diagnostics. This cell carries the correct EEPROM data for that handshake.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through charge, full discharge to hibernate cutoff, and a second full charge on a Latitude 9420 2-in-1 unit. The BMS accepted the cell without fault codes, and Dell's built-in battery report showed capacity within spec after two cycles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-cycle calibration on the 9420 2-in-1:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installing, run one full discharge to hibernate cutoff, then charge uninterrupted to 100%. This resets the BIOS battery learn cycle and clears the inaccurate health warning that appears after every cell swap on this platform. Skip this step and Windows may report 0% health for weeks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBIOS reporting battery health as poor after replacement on the 9420 2-in-1\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Latitude 9420 2-in-1 stores battery health data in EEPROM on the original cell. When a new cell goes in, that EEPROM data is either absent or mismatched, so the BIOS immediately flags health as degraded or unknown. This is not a fault with the replacement cell — it is the firmware comparing the new cell's cycle count and rated Wh against stale reference data. Running a full discharge-to-cutoff followed by an uninterrupted charge to 100% triggers the BIOS learn cycle and rewrites the health register. After one or two complete cycles, the health status in Dell's battery diagnostics will update to reflect the actual cell condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eLaptop shutting down at 20–30% remaining after swapping the battery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe fuel gauge IC on the 9420 2-in-1 calibrates its discharge curve against the original cell's chemistry profile. With a new cell installed, the IC's internal model is still mapped to the old cell's voltage-versus-capacity curve, so it miscalculates the remaining charge and triggers a shutdown well before the cell is actually empty. This is not a hardware fault — it is a calibration gap. Run two full discharge cycles to hibernate cutoff, charging to 100% each time, and the fuel gauge IC will re-map its curve to the new cell. After those two cycles, the reported percentage will track actual cell voltage accurately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43409604018266,"sku":"BWCS-DEL942NB-1","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43409604051034,"sku":"BWCS-DEL942NB-2","price":115.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43409604083802,"sku":"BWCS-DEL942NB-3","price":128.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-DEL942NB-1.webp?v=1779580171","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/dell-latitude-9420-2-in-1-replacement-battery-1155v-4800mah-li-polymer","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
