Have any of the fan motors stopped (use the server management
subsystem to check the fan status)?

Are the fan power connectors properly connected to the system
board?

Is the cable from the front panel board connected to the system
board?

Are the power supply cables properly connected to the system
board?

Are there any shorted wires caused by pinched cables or power
connector plugs forced into power connector sockets the wrong
way?

If the switches and connections are correct and AC power is available at the
wall outlet, contact Technical Support for assistance.

Diskette Drive Activity Light Does Not Light

Check the following:

Are the diskette drive power and signal cables properly installed?

Are all relevant switches and jumpers on the diskette drive set
correctly?

Is the diskette drive properly configured?

Is the diskette drive activity light always on? If so, the signal cable
may be plugged in incorrectly.

If you are using the onboard diskette controller, use the SSU to make sure
that

Onboard Floppy

is set to

Enabled.

If you are using an add-in diskette

controller, make sure that

Onboard Floppy

is set to

Disabled.

To run the SSU,

see “Using the System Setup Utility” on page 105.

If the problem persists, there may be a problem with the diskette drive,
system board, or drive signal cable. Contact your service representative or
authorized dealer for assistance.
