ASUS laptop lights: what each colour and blink means
An ASUS notebook has a power indicator and a two-colour battery charge indicator. The charge light is solid orange while charging below 95%, solid white from 95% to 100% on the charger, blinking orange on battery below 10%, and off on battery from 10% to 100%. ASUS publishes no blink-code table for start-up faults.
ASUS’s FAQ describes the indicators for its notebooks in general; ASUS says the pictures are for reference and to see your laptop’s user manual for details. ASUS says this information may not suit all products in the same category or series and to see your laptop’s user manual, so check your model.
