Solving Problems Described by LCD Status Messages
The code and text of the status messages on the LCD (see Table 1-5) can
often specify a very precise fault condition that is easily corrected. For
example, if the code E1418 CPU_1_Presence appears, you know that a
microprocessor is not installed in socket 1.
In contrast, you might be able to determine the problem if multiple related
errors occur. For example, if you receive a series of messages indicating
multiple voltage faults, you might determine that the problem is a failing
power supply.
Removing LCD Status Messages
For faults associated with sensors, such as temperature, voltage, fans, and so
on, the LCD message is automatically removed when that sensor returns to a
normal state. For example, if temperature for a component goes out of range,
the LCD displays the fault; when the temperature returns to the acceptable
range, the message is removed from the LCD. For other faults, you must take
action to remove the message from the display:
