Have you ever wondered about how to turn on SMPS without motherboard? When your system having a problem to turn on you can use this method to diagnose the SMPS. Its an easy method to turn on the SMPS.
- Open your computer's casing. Be sure that your computer is completely turned off prior to starting. Remove the screws that are present in the side panel of your computer. You need to remove only one side of the panel.
- Remove the connections from the SMPS to all the peripherals of your computer. Please note that some connections contains a clip attached to it. Make sure to remove the clips before you remove your connections.
- With your SMPS removed, take a paper clip and bent it in a shape of 'U' shape or you can take a small wire, remove to side's insulation.
- Find the 24 pin connector from your SMPS (obviously it is the bigger connector from SMPS). Try to locate green and black wire. Please note, that there will be one green wire and many black wires. You can select any black wire you want.
- Insert one end of the bent paper clip/wire into the green terminal and the other end to the black terminal.
- As soon as you connect green and black wire the SMPS will turn on, if it not try with another black wire. If SMPS doesn't turn on then your SMPS is damaged.
