Battery compatibility Precision 5520

I had hoped to get a OEM battery replacement for my Dell Precision 5520, however the battery model "6GTPY" does not appear to be on the store. I noticed the W62W6  model appeared to be similar and supported the 5530. The battery does fit but causes the indicator LED to blink white and amber. There is a message on boot claiming it's not a dell battery. Will I simply need to return this one and get a third party battery.

I ordered a 6GTPY directly from Dell before it went out of stock, but instead incorrectly received a GPM03. While this battery is also 97 Wh and physically fits and connects to the laptop, the laptop displays an error at startup stating it cannot detect the battery and refuses to charge. Beware if you try to buy a 6GTPY from Dell - I have sent in 3 support tickets asking to be refunded as I received the wrong item, and it still has not been resolved.
