Genuine Dell OEM Battery Cable

This is a genuine Dell OEM replacement cable that connects the system battery to the motherboard. It carries the Dell part number 1C3TM and is identified by the cable markings GDS70_BATTERY_ASSY, DC02003UI00 and DC02003U100. The part is designed specifically for the Alienware x17 R1 and Alienware x17 R2 laptops.

Passive Connection With No Active Cooling

The cable is a passive electrical component that draws no power of its own and generates no heat. It has no fan, no moving parts and produces no audible noise during normal operation. Installation simply restores the original power path between the battery and the mainboard.

Direct Plug-In Fit for Alienware x17 Chassis

The connectors are keyed to match the factory battery and motherboard headers, allowing a straight-forward plug-in without adapters or soldering. The routing follows the original chassis layout so the cable sits clear of hinges and other internal components. Buyers needing a different length or a connector for another laptop model will not be served by this part.

Questions about this item

How do I install the battery cable in the Alienware x17 R1 and which step do people often miss?

Disconnect the system battery, route the cable through the chassis clips, attach the motherboard connector labelled DC02003UI00, then re-secure the battery screws before closing the case.

What maintenance or replacement will this cable need later?

The cable itself requires no scheduled maintenance; replace it only if the insulation frays or the connector pins bend during a future battery swap.

What limit appears first when the laptop runs under sustained load?

The cable is rated for the standard battery current of the Alienware x17 R1 and x17 R2, so thermal throttling of the CPU or GPU will occur before the cable reaches its limit.
