What does the red flashing LED inside the PX3 mean? It's a troubleshooting tool. There are actually two of them (one underneath the power supply board). One is controlled directly by the microprocessor, so if it is blinking the CPU is OK. The other is driven by the graphics processor, so it is blinking then that chip is OK also. Thanks to Alan NA1L in email to the Yahoo KX3 group 10/8/2014.
