Action
1. Check the LEDs on the system board to identify the
component that caused the error. The BOARD LED can
be lit due to any of the following reasons:
v Battery
v (Trained technician only) System board
2. Check the system-error log for information about the error.
3. Replace the failing component:
v Battery (see "Removing the battery" on page 273 and
