D1601 = heat issue
D1602 = power connector a removed
D1603 = power connector b removed

I think the card or power supply is defective.

might be also just cable connector lose or got unplugged ??

Did you buy online ? you could contact manufacturer and describe problem.

check the cables and if you could borrow a power supply to test out.

Btw whats your PSU?

psu should be fine....

So

1) check the cable to see if they got disconnected somehow

because the led indicate there heat issues and cable problems.....

2) can you borrow another card to see if it works ?

if you replace card and system is ok, youll get a clear idea that the card is defective
