          as i know, when you change the SIO chip you need to reprogram it if it's programmable.
          so here the 192kb EC file extracted from Dell website for your (Vostro 3590).

            Any updates on this, I have the same 3 Orange 5 White flashes.
            There was a short to ground on 5V rail. I replaced DC/DC switch (it was cracked possibly exploded) and fan capacitor as it was shorted to ground. The short is now fixed however there is still the same LED codes. No obvious signs of something wrong.

                Dell XPS 13 9310 2 amber 4 white memory failure
                by Themi
                I have this laptop a dell XPS 13 9310
                Power on is ok, stuck at dell logo flashing 2 amber and 4 white (link dell service manual) 2,4 Memory or RAM (Random-Access Memory) failure​

                I believe this is the spec from using micron tool to decode marking

                Images of the ram


                I am thinking to replace but wondering if there is a possibility to test while in circuit to find the faulty module? I am doubting there is any reasonable test possible while in circuit as most ram ICs I have tested previously, I have done while off board / removed.

                Dell Inspiron 5567 2 amber 6 white error
                by Amirnsrti
                Hi everyone
                I have this Dell Inspiron 5567 laptop that shows 2 amber 6 white error when I try to turn it on it's fan starts to work at very high speed even though I just turned it on and laptop is cold, screen is black but it shows very dim lines for less than a second when I click on power button. I used it like 4 years and I got this error so I didn't used it for last 3 years.
                The error it gives is for motherboard chipset issue.
                I Read some topics that something is wrong with bios but I don't really know how to flash the bios using another bios file. So I really appreciate...

                Dell Inspiron 3593 3 amber 1 white
                by s_henya
                Hi all,

                Got this in today,
                no signs of life.
                found a broken charging port- after replacing it, the laptop turns on and charges the battery.

                Trying to turn it on, laptop powers up, capslock is on and not responding, no image on the screen. Indicator led is flashing with 3 amber 1 white.
                CPU and GPU are very hot, so laptop has all the required voltages.

                Cmos battery is okay ~2.9v which supposed to be okay.

                Could it be a bios problem?...

                Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
                by Bowline
                My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

                Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

                My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
                The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
                I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...
