Dell Optiplex 790 Error Codes 1 And 3
Found that they were very expensive so searched for a less expensive one, I am not wealthy, nor even ok right now... Found two tested units on ebay for $25 shipped, great deal I thought, get two as they are apparently know to fail often. However, did not realize that I needed units with the pico or mini ATX motherboard connection. The ones I bought were from Optiplex 380's. After getting them, I figured I could cut the dell optiplex 760 error codes 1 3 old pico or mini atx connector and wire off the old one and reuse it. Used a volt meter and diagramed all the voltages on old vs new, colors of wires, etc. Got all that done in the last few days, removed the pins with paper clip tool, etc. Soldered up and heat shrink or taped the wire connections, tested the connections to make sure all voltages were corrrect and matching old unit, etc. Installed new unit, wires were a bit long but all was working fine.

The LED on the back"goes on" when theps button is pushed, so the manual says motherboard might be bad.Any ideas on how do I tell ifit's the motherboard or something else? I havere-tested the 24 pin mo

I'd hoped someone had another idea. Thanks for confirming though! 0 Jalapeno OP Best Answer knappert Mar 13, 2014 at 1:48 UTC Number 3 - Blinking Amber - "A possible motherboard failure has occurred" test the power supply voltage power rails, if it tests fine, look at the capacitors https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/458043-dell-optiplex-960-won-t-turn-on on the motherboard for visual failure. 3 Tabasco OP VooDude Mar 13, 2014 at 3:11 UTC Just a note for the above comment.  Failed capacitors will typically be swollen and or discolored on the top, where there is exposed metal. 2 Serrano OP Justin (Dell) Mar 13, 2014 at 3:15 UTC Brand Representative for Dell IT2011, Thank you for your using SpiceWorks. Feel free to DM me your service tag and I'll be happy to see what options we have for you regarding the motherboard. 0 Anaheim OP kakashi (Oz) Nov 6, 2014 at 2:46 UTC mine was a bad power supply and all capacitors looked good. 0 Pimiento OP Virus Jan 16, 2015 at 12:57 UTC 1st Post Dear Team, Case 1.
