Troubleshooting
This section describes some common troubleshooting topics:
FPM-7620F does not startup
Positioning of FPM-7620F mounting hardware and a few other causes may prevent a FPM-7620F from starting up
correctly.
Power sliders and module levers not fully closed
If the power sliders or module levers are damaged or positioned incorrectly, the FPM-7620F may not start up. Make sure
the sliders are fully closed and the levers are correctly aligned, fully inserted, and locked and the secure screws are
tightened.
Firmware problem
If the FPM-7620F is receiving power and the sliders and levers are fully closed, and you have restarted the chassis and
the FPM-7620F still does not start up, the problem could be with FortiOS. Connect to the FPM-7620F console and try
cycling the power to the board. If the BIOS starts up, interrupt the BIOS startup and install a new firmware image. See
your FortiGate-7000 chassis system guide for information about accessing and installing firmware on individual
modules.
If this does not solve the problem, contact Fortinet Technical Support.
