Look along the seam in raked light for the plastic front lifting away from the metal back, and run a fingernail round it — a lip you can catch is the case being pushed open from inside. On this build the pack lies in the rear case directly behind the display, so the screen is the other tell: a dark blotch, a bright or discoloured patch, or a bowed panel is the cell pressing on it from behind. The click wheel is not the tell on this model — that belongs to the older 4th-generation and Photo layout, where the pack sits behind the wheel. When the old pack is out, lay it beside the replacement: a healthy cell is flat and stiff, a swollen one is domed and gives under a light press.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA swollen lithium battery is the most common reason a stored iPod Video comes back to life with case problems. Owners describe it as a \"bloated\" or \"puffed up\" battery — repair communities call it a \"spicy pillow.\" Here is what it looks like in practice on the 5th generation, drawn from real owner reports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnecdotal owner reports (not a guarantee or authoritative proof):\u003c\/strong\u003e\n- An owner revived a 30GB iPod Video that had sat in a drawer for years: the battery had bloated enough that it needed replacing before anything else, and the case would not sit flush until the swollen pack came out.\n- Another owner charged an old unit overnight on a high-wattage iPad charger and noticed the rear panel starting to lift — a depleted pack fed by an oversized charger is a classic swelling trigger on these units.\n- A third replaced a bloated battery, then found the click wheel had stopped working afterward. On the 5G that is almost never the swelling itself — the pack lies in the rear case directly behind the display, not behind the wheel, so a swollen cell presses the screen rather than the controls — it is usually the Hold-switch ribbon or wheel flex cable disturbed during the repair. Lift the battery from the top edge only and recheck both ribbons before blaming the new part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it usually progresses:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n- It usually announces itself in stages: runtime drops from hours to minutes, then the rear panel starts to feel tight or sits proud at the seam, and in advanced cases the swelling presses the LCD from behind — dark pressure marks on the screen are the late warning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat typically causes it:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n- The common triggers we see: years of storage with a fully drained pack, and charging a deeply discharged unit unattended on a high-wattage charger.

If it charges but will not sync, separate charge-only cable, dock-pin damage, host software, Disk Mode, and storage state before treating it as a battery fault. A FireWire source charging the iPod does not test the USB path or the whole charge circuit: try a known-good USB cable and a port on the computer itself (not the keyboard's) before deciding which part is at fault. An aged battery can still take wall current while refusing a computer's, so a split like that is a clue, not a verdict.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-preview\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eCan storage trouble look like a bad battery?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-preview-text\"\u003eListen for repeated drive clicking and compare whether the symptom changes in disk mode or during restore. Reseat the hard-drive ribbon before replacing the battery again when power symptoms began after service. Listen for repeat clicking or repeated spin-up attempts before replacing storage parts. Check whether the iPod enters disk mode, restores cleanly, and is recognized by the computer. If a drive or flash adapter was just installed, recheck cable seating, adapter orientation, and formatting before buying another part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-preview\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWhat should I check before replacing this battery?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-preview-text\"\u003eInspect the battery connector and nearby ribbon paths before ordering another battery. Look for corrosion, torn flex material, or a connector that no longer clamps the battery lead cleanly. Reopen only as far as needed to inspect the areas touched during the repair.

Suppliers do cross-list some cells across the Video and the later Classic, and the families use similar thin and thick packs — but a listing that names both is not a measurement of your unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin the Video alone, thickness has to match the case: a technician on this model diagnosed a too-thick replacement simply as a 30GB iPod that had been sent a 60GB battery. Capacity ratings printed on aftermarket cells do not identify case height either.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo: check the case depth, the connector and the clearance you have — a flash adapter stack changes it — and treat a Classic listing as a pointer to that family's own pages rather than a promise of fit.
