Dell Precision - battery LED working as wifi LED

For some strange reason as soon as I boot up, the battery LED flashes orange. It would be blue when in the BIOS screen or before KDE came up b ut start flashing .
I first thought my battery is screwed, but it's relatively new and the test button as well as the BIOS shows good health.

Then I noticed that my wifi LED is not flashing anymore and I turned off the wifi switch - voila, the battery LED shows blue again. It seems that somehow, the system is using the Battery LED as the Wifi one.

very strangely, my parallel Kubuntu installation also does this now!

Where on earth is this configured and what broke this? How do I test LED functionality?
