3 - 10 POST code diagnostic LEDs
During the system boot process, the BIOS executes several platform conguration processes, each of
which is assigned a specic hex POST code number. When each conguration routine is started, the BIOS
displays the POST code number through the POST code diagnostic LEDs on the system board. To assist in
troubleshooting a system hang during the POST process, the diagnostic LEDs can be used to identify the
last POST process executed.
The POST code diagnostic LED #0 (callout 4 ) is the LSB and the POST code diagnostic LED #7 (callout 9 )
is the MSB. If a POST code diagnostic LED is lit, it indicates 1 in the binary numeral system; otherwise, it
indicates 0. For example, if POST code diagnostic LEDs
5 , 6 , 9 , and 10 are lit, you can read the number
as the following:
POST code diagnostic LED
9 7 5 3 10 8 6 4
Binary symbol 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0
The “10101010” indicates a corresponding POST code.
Note: The POST code diagnostic LEDs and POST error code information are intended for trained service
personnel of Lenovo.
The following table lists information about the POST error codes.
