Troubleshooting power supply unit problems

Steps

  1. Ensure that no loose connections exist.
    For example, loose power cables.
  2. Ensure that the power supply unit or handle LED if applicable, indicates that the power supply is working properly.
  3. If you have recently upgraded your system, ensure that the power supply unit has enough power to support the new system.
  4. If you have a redundant power supply configuration, ensure that both the power supply units are of the same type and wattage.
  5. If your system supports Extended Power Performance (EPP), ensure that you use only power supply units with the Extended Power Performance (EPP) label on the back.
  6. Reseat the power supply unit.
    NOTE:After installing a power supply unit, allow several seconds for the system to recognize the power supply unit and determine if it is working properly.

    If the problem persists, see the Get help section.
