wrong section
but if you find the secondary error code out i can tell you the exact problem you have
HOW TO FIND 2nd ERROR CODE
1.HOLD THE SYNC BUTTON,
2.PRESS THE EJECT AND LOOK AT THE ROL
If only one light comes on code = 1
if only two lights come on code = 2
If 3 lights come on code = 3
If 4 lights come on code = 0
REPEAT THE 4 TIMES SO YOU CAN GET A 4 DEGIT CODE Eg, 0202, 0120 ETC

there is no easy way of fixing it, there are temporary fix, and that is by simply applying heat

PROBLEM
This error is caused by a cold solder joint under the GPU, (H)ANA-chip or in between.
Mostly it is one of the outer solder balls on the side facing the (H)ANA chip so a shim increases the chanced of success quite a bit.
Can also be a component that is missing or damaged so look for missing parts near the GPU and the (H)ANA chip.,
FIX
1)If you soldered anything to the mainboard before it occured, whatever you are powering from this point is drawing too much power so get rid of it.Also get rid of everything that you can see that might bridge anything near the GPU.
2) X-Clamp replacement Hybrid - Tighten the GPU screws facing the HANA chip slightly more and make sure to be using a shim
2) X-Clamp replacement Hybrid - Tighten the GPU screws facing the HANA chip slightly more and make sure to be using a shim. Adding an extra shim on each side of the smaller chip dye will help to create more surface against the heatsink and will increase the chances of the error going away for good.
3) If there is a lot of flexing under the GPU, bake the board to unflex it
4) Reflowing GPU and HANA chip
