Inspiron 7560- 3 Amber, 5 White Blinks

Dear sirs, kindly advice me about how to solve the Start Up issue of Inspiron 15 756 Model. While Power On button pressed, Battery light LED Blinks in the format like 3 times in Amber color and 5 times in White color.

Then found, for Start Up, i need to plug charger with Laptop and Press the power button for 5 Secs. Then release the Power Button, then again normally press Power Button. Now its starting as normal way.

But this kinda method is not permanent. So please help to resolve this issue friends. Thanks you.

Do a power reset. Remove the charger and hold down the power button till the lights keep blinking. Then do the same again till you your laptop starts. I've been doing this to start my laptop since the problem has occured.

REPLACE CMOS BATTERY! You will find multiple youtube videos as to how to do that. You might have observed the computer time lagging behind the actual time and the need to update it everytime you restart

I had the same problem! The dell colour blinking chart does not show that and this resolved by problem.

Get the entire set (cell+wires) or just replace cell only. NEVER SOLDER THE WIRES, AS THE CELL WILL EXPLODE! Use a conducting tape.

 

Please upvote this as it will resolve your problem!

3 amber and 5 white is not a CMOS code indicator! Please, stop to give useless advises!

Two years after the problem was described, Dell still has no solution and clear idea what is wrong.
7560 and 7550 have the same issue - so far it seems like only the motherboard replacement can help, but even that is not permanent and consistent fix.

Somebody from Dell to share the technical opinion? Please!

Thanks for letting us know.

Any version of BIOS could go bad in such cases.

 

I am glad that the issue has been fixed.
