#1 LED works but nothing else

i have the issue where the #1 LED works but nothing else. I hit the power button and then nothing happens, no more LEDs, no power on, no fan noise, nothing. has anybody got any clue as to why that would be? i have just installed an SSD into the machine and the problems start after that. i have tested the power supply according to several videos on youtube and it seems to be working so don’t think thats the problem.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

For me it turned out the flat plug that connects the display to the motherboard was broken. You should check if it's connected properly.

Shaun, Did you check your cable connections?

All the #1 LED tells you is that trickle power is getting to the PSU, not that it is working. First check your connection to the logic board from the power supply. Use a multimeter to test the output. Next replace the power supply.
