3. Check battery status light (7. Status lights, blinking light codes, troubleshooting
lights, and POST error messages on page 73). Be sure that battery is not fully
discharged, preventing system from booting.
4. Determine whether the computer can turn on with battery only.
5. Remove service door and test with a veried working battery. If the computer
boots, inspect original battery before replacement.
6. Test battery with a veried working computer to verify that it is OK.
7. If there is still no boot, remove battery and boot on AC power only.
The sections below are intended for authorized service providers/technicians.
Verify AC adapter – voltage
1. Measure DC voltage output that should be around 19.5 VDC and acceptable
voltage range is from 18.5 – 20.5 VDC.
2. If the DC voltage is out of range, replace the AC adapter.
NOTE: This action requires a digital voltmeter.
NOTE: 2015 mWS does not have the power
cable between system board and power
connector on chassis
Verify power button, power connector
1. Be sure that power button is not stuck.
2. Reseat power connector cable (if applicable).
3. Replace new power connector cable (if the cable exists and is defective)
4. To isolate faulty power connector cable and power button, technicians can short
power-on pads/pins to power up the computer. Contact HP Engineering for this
information.
Verify blinking lights (7. Status lights, blinking light codes, troubleshooting lights,
and POST error messages on page 73)
At this point, there should be sucient power from the AC adapter to the system
board. Expect to hear the fan spinning and see blinking lights or error messages (i.e.,
faulty memory, HDD, etc)
Verify Power Good (Troubleshooting) lights
1. Verify if the system board has power-on issue related. If there is no power-on
issue, move to next steps. For more information, see Power Good
(Troubleshooting) lights on page 77.
2. Verify all connections and reseat parts (10. Reseat cables and connections
on page 80).
Verify system board
1. Test essential hardware conguration (11. Test with minimum conguration
on page 80, 12. Test with veried working conguration (hardware and/or
operating system) on page 82, 13. Replace the system board on page 82) by
removing nonessential parts.
2. If there is still no boot, replace system board.
Tips and tricks Computer automatically boots without pressing power button when RTC 3V battery
has been removed. Therefore, after the service door and RTC 3V battery are removed,
no need to press power button from top side.
In essential hardware conguration, mWS G1 and G2 may require discrete GPU to boot.
However, mWS G3 can boot with integrated graphics.
