NO Post, LED codes
I need to know what 4 white led flashes means for the
Inspiron 3593
I get not behavior other than the flashes. I have unplugged the batteries, reseated the ram, removed the harddrives. Nothing I do has made any difference what-so-ever. I just get the caps locks light on, the four flashes of the LED next to the power cord. If if the power cord is not plugged in (while the battery was connected of course). All the documentation I have seen mentions amber and white flashes. There is no amber, only white. four flashes the a pause and four flashes, etc.

Is the LED ring on the AC adapter that's flashing?

@ejn63 no, or at least the power cord does not have an LED ring on it.
When I got home the blinking changed to a single blink. After holding the power button down for about 40 seconds and it tried to power on I heard an audible click when powering off. After that it came on. It said system time was off and I did a diagnostic and it said one of ram chips was faulty. These are three month old crucial ram chips and now one is bad.
I removed the offending chip and it seems to have come on.
the blinking lights never have shown any color other than white.
But two white (amber) and two white (white) would memory module error code.
