ASA 5520 dead console

Hello Folks,

Anyone know if memory of a flash on ASA 5520 completely dead should I see anything when I'm connecting to console port ?

(at least initial boot message?). I have a unit it looks ok but zero output via console. Tried all speed setting same issue.

I think it hardware issue and I need to fix it myself.

Kind Regards,

Hi,

What is the status of the LED when you power the unit.

Check this link:

You may want to try reseating Memory in the unit,

Thx

Hi,

If the flash is corrupted on the ASA device , you should see some prompt on the Console.

I think if no console , you should proceed with the RMA of the unit through TAC.

Thanks and Regards,

I can't do RMA since it old unit for the lab. The logic board looks ok so it kind strange.

What about memory if all memory dead should I see something via console ?

The status LED yellow and the rest green.
