Hi,

I just tried a self test on my PSU, when I click self test I hear a click the fan spins and the green light shows for a split second. I then hear another click and the red light shows up.

Is this normal? Reason I ask is because my PC just randomly shut down and won't start up. When I press the power button then case fans start then stop nearly instantly and with the lights on my motherboard and GPU Turing on then off again.

To me it seems my like PSU isn't working right.

Any ideas?

Yeah that doesn't sound right.  Try resetting your surge protector as well?  Could also reset your breaker just to be sure.  Sounds like it could be a PSU problem.  I would open a support ticket with Corsair.
