On a Dell OptiPlex 7010, if you’re seeing the power button flash amber twice, it’s part of a diagnostic code pattern. These codes usually follow a format like 2,1 or 2,3—two amber blinks, a short pause, then another number of blinks.
Here’s what some of those codes mean:
• 2,1 – System board failure A
• 2,2 – System board, PSU, or PSU cabling failure
• 2,3 – System board, memory, or CPU failure B
If you’re only seeing 2 amber blinks with no second number, it might indicate a power issue or an incomplete POST (Power-On Self-Test). In that case:
• Swap in a known-good power supply if possible. (Contact Dell support if in warranty and you need assistance)
• Try reseating the RAM and CPU(contact Dell support for assistance).
