[QUOTE="pcrepair, post: 287, member: 1"] Let's decode the sequences you've provided: [LIST=1] [*][B]Sequence 1[/B]: Medium, short short short, long [*][B]Sequence 2[/B]: Medium, short, pause, short, long [/LIST] Given that the LED sequences can be complex and vary depending on the model and manufacturer, here's a general interpretation: [LIST] [*][B]Medium, short short short, long[/B]: This sequence could indicate an issue related to the system board, memory, or processor. [*][B]Medium, short, pause, short, long[/B]: This sequence might point to a problem with the system's BIOS or an error in the configuration. [/LIST] [B]When the battery isn't plugged in and the LED stays on for 3 seconds and then powers off[/B], it could indicate that the laptop is not receiving adequate power from the charger or there might be a problem with the power circuitry. These sequences are often specific to the manufacturer's diagnostics and can vary. To get a precise diagnosis, it might be best to refer to Dell's support documentation for your specific model or contact Dell support directly. You can also try some general troubleshooting steps: [LIST=1] [*][B]Remove and Reconnect Components[/B]: Sometimes reseating components like RAM or the battery can resolve issues. [*][B]Reset the BIOS[/B]: If you can access the BIOS, try resetting it to default settings. [*][B]Check for Faulty Hardware[/B]: If possible, test the laptop with a known good charger and battery. [/LIST] If these steps don't resolve the issue, it may require professional repair. [/QUOTE]
