7559 blinking pattern

My laptop screen went black. I rebooted the system and now it seems that it doesn't post. There are blinking lights in the power led status, it is flashing 2 oranges (amber) and 4 white lights. Does anyone have a blinking pattern chart? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

    Lfpalmeira,

    Below is the diagnostic LED patterns and what they mean. If you have the 2,4 you have memory failure. Try reseatting the memory. Below is the online manual for your system. It provides information for removing/replacing hardware in your computer.

    Dell Inspiron 7559 Drivers, Downloads and Manuals

    LED Codes

     

    The LED Code devises a unique blinking pattern in two groups to indicate the error on the system. The first group (Amber color) of LED blinks (1 through 9) followed by a brief pause, and then a second group (White color) of LED blinks (1 through 9) with a longer pause before repeating over again.



    LED Codes for 7559

    Replace the reserve (CMOS) battery.

    Look under Coin Cell battery in the service manual, here:

    As per the chart that is a CMOS battery failure. The battery is fairly simple to replace (CR2032 battery type).

    Unplug system;  disconnect battery. Hold the power button for 30 sec.

    Remove and reinstall both modules. Try again.  If you still get the same error/no bootup, try one module at a time in each socket.  If one module fails in both sockets, replace it with a new one. If both modules fail in the same socket, it's the socket that's bad; replace the mainboard.

    If you get a memory failure with two modules together, odds are it's the system board that's bad.
