This is the entry point for all check procedures. The check procedures use failure symptoms, Power-On Self Test (POST) error codes, or
beeps to help determine the defective field replaceable unit (FRU). Follow the suggested check procedures or use the diagnostics diskette
to determine the problem FRU.
IMPORTANT:
Replace FRUs ONLY when it is determined that the error is not a result of software, loose contacts, or dirty component
surfaces. Any FRU change should be verified by running a complete test (
Diagnostics - All Tests
in PC-Doctor diagnostics
program).
This book comes with a diagnostic program diskette. This diskette should be used ONLY with
Machine Types 6266, 6270, 6276, 6279,
6280 and 6286.
Do not use this diskette on other models.
POST error codes and error messages are displayed on the screen after the IBM logo.
A beep will precede each error code or message. Please refer to “Index of Symptoms, Messages, Error Codes, or Beeps” on page 50 for
additional help.
All voltages in the check procedures are positive unless otherwise indicated. Use frame ground for all voltage checks unless otherwise
specified.
IMPORTANT:
There is a voltage selector on the rear panel of the machine. Use a flat-head screwdriver to turn the voltage selector to the
voltage setting for the area in which you will be using the system.
NOTE:
If the check procedures instruct you to replace a FRU and the error message persists, an option adapter card might be causing
the failure. Remove all option adapter cards, one at a time, until the error changes or the problem is no longer apparent. The
problem may be in the last card that you removed or something associated with it.
The Recovery CD contains pre-loaded software that may reinstall the original software and recover the system. Ensure that any data and
programs on the hard drive have a backup copy.
How to Diagnose Combined FRUs:
If an adapter or device consists of more than one FRU, any of the FRUs might cause an error code.
Before replacing the device or adapter, remove the FRUs one by one to see if the symptoms change.
