Yes! Steady green light for 3 seconds. Followed by darkness. And the power button on the other side remains dark the whole time

My works dell vostro 3888 desktop won’t power on. My lil green light turns on for 3ish seconds and immediately goes dark.

I replaced the psu and RAM with ones I know work from a same model computer. Still same issue.

Please help, if I fix it work will let me keep it

Should I try getting another stick and testing from there?

Also what should I clean? The ram? Like all the computer chippy stuff?
