Taken from "The View", the newsletter of the Pacific Northwest Amiga
Association, Volume 6, No.5  October 1990.

"STARTUP-SEQUENCE NOTES
 CAPS LOCK L.E.D. FLASH

One Flash means the keyboard ROM failed
Two flashes mean the keyboard RAM failed
Three flashes mean the 'watchdog' timer failed
Four flashes means a short exists between two row lines or on one of the seven
special keys.

These flahses come in short bursts with a short interval between them.  The LED
comes on briefly during self-test; if it goes off and stays off then all is
well.  You only need become concerned if the boot fails and you see the LED
flashing in one of the above sequences."...
