IBM PC300GL - Intermittent power-on failure

Applicable to: World-Wide

SYMPTOM:
IBM PC300-GL 6272/6282 systems intermittently fail to power on.

PROBLEM ISOLATION AIDS:
In some systems the HD drive and power LED cables may be secured too tightly with the LED wire tie wraps. This can cause the insulation on the LED wires to become damaged resulting in an intermittent short.

If the system exhibits the symptom described above, examine the LED cables for damage that may expose the inner wire resulting in a possible short.

FIX:
If the insulation on one or both of the LED wires is damaged, replace them with the following FRU numbers:


HDD LED and Cable FRU 93F2388
Power LED and Cable FRU 93F2389
