xD glad it was all worked out jdem good information to know didnt even know there was an error code for power not being connected.

Thanks for this post. I just did the test on a whim as well and got this error. You saved me a lot of stress!

I called apple about this same problem and they told me that it was sent DOA. They sounded pretty certain that my Retina MBP was dead on arrival. So I just set up a refund and bought a new one.

The reason I called is because my MBP was going really slow, and sometimes the usb wouldnt work correcty. I was getting download speeds of 3mbps. Not write speeds. My bottom of the barrel Toshiba picks up 20 mbps download speeds in the same excact room. My 2.4GHZ MBP isnt much slower. But now that Ive seen your post I wonder if AppleCare was incorrect. When I retested it with the power pluged in it came up with no errors.

Now im worried. Im still getting a new one, but I dont want to have to return that one too. If there really is nothing wrong with my computer I guess I just dont want it. I got to say I really hoped for better speeds. All of my software is up to date. I have the base model with 8GB memory, but I dont use any memory intensive apps.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I took the MBPr to the apple store and even with the computer plugged the error still appear.

They wanted me to leave the MBPr with them and replace the logic board. I tell you what no apple personnel knew what this code even meant and to me that was very frustrating. Apple never left a list of error codes for their employees. I decided to reorder a new one. When I got my second MBPr I started it up and did the test and the same error code appeared again. I sent it back and awaiting for my refund. Bottom line there shouldn't be an error code on a $2,500 computer period! In addition, Apple should have the list of codes and what they mean to all Apple employees to avoid customer frustration.

Thanks for this post. I just did the test on my mbp as well and got this same error. You saved me a lot of stress.... precious information!

Exactly the same thing happened here. I just set up my new RMBP and had been having some issues with the black screen. Ran the Hardware Test on battery, got the error, just re-ran it plugged in, no error. Running the test in extended mode. Will see what it comes up with.

Oh and between resetting PRAM and running the Disk Utility, I seem to have whipped the problem with the black screen. Still think I will keep my appointment with the Geniuses this evening, though. Just to be safe.

Bought my MacBook Pro yesterday, ran the Apple test this morning and got the same error: 4SNS/1/40000001:IDOR-0.000. Ran it again with the power adapter connected and got no error. Running the extended test now (though not connected to the power adapter.), it will be interesting to see if it fails with the same code.

I imagine that this test does look for power input, but it should state to be sure to connect the power adapter before running the test.

No other issues with this computer. I switched from Windows and really like this Apple and Mountain Lion OS.

As a follow-up, the extended test finished (I plugged the power adapter in halfway through) and the test finished with no errors.

I would like to say thank you that just saved me a lot of worry and a 2 hr drive

I just ran my DX test on a computer I bought off of someone on eBay. This exact same error message came up.

Thanks so much for answering this. I was about to panic!

Many thanks!

I had the same error and waste of time.
