XPS 15 9570 Diagnostic LED 4 amber 1 white
Hi, today I was pushing my laptop real hard without having it plugged in. Then the battery died and the laptop turned off. After pluggin it into the wall and turning it on, I got 4 amber flashes and 1 white flash on the front LED blinking in a cycle. It stopped doing this after about 30 seconds and now it is glowing white to indicate that the laptop is charging.
I searched on Google, but I cannot find what do 4 amber and 1 white flash mean. If anyone knows why it did that, please comment below, thanks.

You mean the flashing lights stop blinking after 30 seconds ?
You are still able to power on computer and boot into windows 10 ?
4 amber, 1 white blinking lights usually means there's a problem with either battery or motherboard. The fix's usually is reseating the battery.
When you remove the ac adapter form the computer, does the LED still blinks amber and white?
