Front panel header noob question

[dwu182]

The case that I have supplies the following connections from the front panel:
HD LED
Power SW
Reset SW
Speaker
+ / -

Is there supposed to be a Power LED somewhere in that mix?

I tried the search function but it omitted "LED" so now I'm asking. Thanks.

Also- do brass standoffs prevent short circuiting the MB with the case? Brass is a good conductor and I was wondering if you could advise.

Thanks.

It doesn't really matter what the standoffs are made of because they are not touching any electrical component. The standoff holes are isolated from the circuitry of the board.

Are there 2 LEDs on the front panel? One for the HDD indicator and one for PWR. If theres just one then theres your answer.

there are 2 LEDs but only 1 LED connection.

thanks for the standoff info

On some mobos there is a separate header for the Power Led Do you have a Mobo Book?

i took off the front panel and traced the power LED wires to two wires, one labeled '' + '' and one labeled '' - ''
