Aurora R11, preboot failed, Cable : Fail Error code 2000-0716

Hi I've been having a failed pre-boot events.  Error code -0716. Could you point me to something recommended fix that I can do myself. I still have Dell support but want to resolve this myself first. 

Thanks.

    Issue resolved. With the manual sent from Dell, I was able to pull out the 3 panels and reseated all the cables, especially Cable 2 for USBs.  It was a bit of pain to pry open the case, but it works.  Thanks.

    I found that cable two connect was poorly made, it doesn't sit as snuglly as cable 3.

    You will need to provide the system model number for anyone to answer.

    The system does not detect the power button. Is the case intact and all OEM?

    yes, intact. only opened twice by Dell Techs to replace motherboard.

    Just opened a case w/ Dell and they requested me to open it and reseat all the cable.
