After rebuilding the cooling/fan system and reassembling this laptop, I get an orange led flash code when trying to startup. The system does nothing at all but a code flashes as soon as you push start and continues to repeat itself as an 8 digit binary. In my case the flashed error bin is 0100 1110 . I have found the Toshiba chart for power supply code trouble, but I cannot relate the flashed code I see to their error code. They say it is in hexadecimal, which my calculator coverts to '4E'. But the toshiba table lists the hex error codes as 10h, 22h, 73h, etc, eg. and nothing like 4E.
Can you help me convert the binary flash code to the 'toshiba hex code'?
Or do you know what the error is and what I should be checking back inside laptop?
Here is the Toshiba Trouble Shooting Procedures link that may help others of you....
