Hmmm....

Looking three inches to the left of your message: mine don't!

You might want to take a look at the 'Diagnostic Lights' topic in your
Owner's Manual; that explains the different combinations and when they're
lit.

I have...It is not very specific about how long they are lit..It
gives the impression that they stay lit (green) if all ok, then the
various "patterns" if not...

I don't know about the XPS Gen5, but

I have a Gen3 and a Gen4. The diagnostic lights come on at bootup and Stay
On.
