When a flash code is emitted, write it down on a copy of
the Diagnostics Checklist found in Chapter 5, and then
look it up in Table 3-3. If you are unable to resolve the
problem by looking up the meaning of the flash code, use
the Dell Diagnostics to identify a more serious cause. (See
Chapter 4, "Running the Dell Diagnostics.") If you are still
unable to resolve the problem, call Dell for technical assis-
tance. (See Chapter 5, "Getting Help," for instructions.)
Table 3-3 lists the flash codes and possible corrective
actions.
