If the battery has a charge, a functional pack should show a total voltage between 9.0V and 12.6V (for a 3S lithium-ion configuration).
The HP MU06 battery follows a standard 7-pin SMBus configuration where Pins 1,2 = Ground; Pins 6,7 = Positive; Pin 5 = Presence Detect; Pins 3,4 = SMBus Clock/Data. The BMS implements strict safety and lockout features. Unauthorized cell replacement or improper voltage application on the SMBus lines will likely trigger a permanent failure lock. For reverse engineering or repair, always use an isolated SMBus adapter and monitor cell balance before attempting to reset the BMS. Hp Mu06 Notebook Battery Pinout Configuration
If you probe Pin 1 and Pin 7 of a loose, functional HP MU06 battery with a multimeter, you will likely read . This is a built-in safety feature managed by the internal Battery Management System (BMS).
If you take a standard digital multimeter, place the black probe on Pin 1 (GND) and the red probe on Pin 7 (V+), you will frequently read , even on a perfectly functional battery. This public link is valid for 7 days
It requires an activation signal on the System Presence or SMBus lines to wake up.

Stop charging immediately if the battery case feels warm to the touch. True smart chargers read the internal thermistor via the SMBus data lines to prevent thermal runaway. Summary for DIYers
