Power failure type B on Raspberry Pi3 Model B+

Hi all,

I recently tried replacing my Pi 1 model B+ with a new Pi3 model B+, but the Pi 3 doesnt seem to boot at all. I see 4 long blinks on the green LED and 7 short ones, which seem to point to Power failure type B according to https://support.pishop.ca/article/33-raspberry-pi-act-led-error-patterns

Some observations I have seen so far doing some troubleshooting:

- I installed Rapsbian on the Pi3 and was able to run it properly.
- The heatermeter works fine with the pi 1
- I made sure to install the correct image for the new pi

Im not sure what to make of it.. Has anyone seen this issue with a pi3?
 
Not sure. Just go with the Pi Zero W. It's so easy. Don't need all that computing power of the Pi 3.
