CMOS battery failure on my NUC6i5SYH

[FDal0]

 I've changed the battery (tested 3.3V), cleaned the pins but the message still remains when I start my nuc. Any idea ?

Possibilities...

Have you gone into BIOS Setup (Visual BIOS) and set the date and time?

Are you sure that you didn't purchase a battery with its wires crossed (lots of these around apparently)?

I may think of more, but this is a good start.

Yes, it was the problem, the wires were inverted !

Thank You very much.
