If your server shows no signs of power, indicated by blinking LEDs, it may be experiencing a 5V SW fault. Begin troubleshooting by disconnecting all USB devices, checking for shorts in the iDRAC Direct cable and video connections, and removing the front control panel cable. If the issue persists after these steps, consider testing with minimal components or replacing the motherboard. [community thread]
