Hi,

There are 4 LED lights in the front as mentioned below:

Description

1 - Power Light
2 - Hard Drive Status Light
3 - Battery Status Light
4 - Wifi/Bluetooth

Following is the brief description of the status of the Lights:  

LED (Power Source; Battery Charge):

1.Power button LED (All; 0-100% charge)

Off/Hibernate (S5/S4) - OFF
Standby (S3) - Breathing White
On (S0) - Solid White

2.Front edge power LED (All; 0-100% charge)

Off/Hibernate (S5/S4) - OFF
Standby (S3) - Breathing White
On (S0) - Solid White

3.Front edge battery charge LED (Dell AC adapter; >98% charge)

Off/Hibernate (S5/S4) - OFF
Standby (S3) - OFF
On (S0) - OFF

4.Front edge battery charge LED (Dell AC adapter;

Off/Hibernate (S5/S4) - Solid White
Standby (S3) -Solid White

5.Front edge battery charge LED - Also applies when adapter is plugged in but battery charge is disabled (Battery;

6.Front edge battery charge LED - Also applies when adapter is plugged in but battery charge is disabled (Battery; >10% charge)

7.HDD LED

8.Camera LED (All sources; 0-100% charge)

Off/Hibernate (S5/S4) - OFF
Standby (S3) - OFF
On (S0) - Solid White when streaming data.

I would recommend removing the power cable and the battery. Hold the power button down for 15-20 seconds and then put the battery and the adapter back in and start the computer. If the symptoms still persist, would request you to please elaborate on the issue and I would be more than happy to help you.

Thanks & Regards
