TEST

  ( B I S T ) —

The power 

supply includes a built-in-self test to diagnose power supply issues. The test may be 
performed with the following steps:

1

Remove all external peripherals.

2

Ensure the system is plugged directly into a working outlet.

3

Press the BIST switch on the back of the power supply. If the LED lights green, the 
power supply is operating normally. If the LED does not light, follow these steps to 
troubleshoot the issue:

a

Unplug the power cord from the power supply. Open the computer cover.

b

Unplug the power supply cable harness from the power supply.

c

Plug the power cord back into the power supply and retest the power supply using 
the BIST switch.

– If the LED lights green, the power supply is operating normally. An internal 

component is likely causing the power failure. Contact technical support for further 
troubleshooting.

– If the LED does not light green, contact technical support for further 

troubleshooting.
