power button LED and the diagnostic LEDs. The diagnostic LEDs are located on the front of the chassis and numbered dell optiplex gx270 error codes 1, 2, 3, 4. The LEDs are located beneath the headphone and microphone jacks. These diagnostic LEDs are only active and visible during the Power On Self-Test (POST) process. Once the operating system dell optiplex gx620 error codes starts to load, they turn off and are no longer visible. The configuration of these LEDs along with the color state of the power button can help pinpoint a potential problem with the system. Each LED has three possible states: OFF, ON, or BLINKING. Use the chart below as a reference for the different LED patterns and the possible system issues they indicate. Note: The diagnostic
