RGH Falcon Red Power Brick Light

[brandonxx45]

Console was working fine trying to boot into xell with rev c rgh2 falcon, so was testing different wire lengths and routes for CPU_RST and FT6U7 but after i did that i put in the power cord and red dot console wont boot any solutions?WARNING LARGE PICS/srry
UPDATE-
tested connections ont he board with multimeter everything seems fine, cant seem to unbridge the points under the usb 1-2-8 but can anyone confirm this would cause the console to short out and give a red light on the PSU.

also to rule out R3B15 is fine.

What is the secondary error code?

How long does it take to RROD when you press the power button?

Inspect the board carefully and make sure there are no solder splashes or other foreign metal objects.

You should also try another PSU if you have one.

Take a look at the last photo you posted.

Remove that solder bridge from the pins.

It is the brick. Had the exact same thing thing happen to me on a falcon. It would red dot on the psu and would not start.

Don't unbridge it, that's normal. I see that on almost every falcon console I get, I believe its just a shared ground. But its normal and put there by the factory so you're fine.

i was going to do it this morning but since that is ruled out i guess its the PSU, i also thought i seen the points bridged when i started rghing the falcon too but i wasnt sure thanks tho i had to ask like 10 different people.
