Apple TV 4K Rapid flashing white light

Hi,


I have a 3 month old Apple TV 4K but it won’t respond and I’m getting a rapidly blinking white light on the front....Anyone have any experience of this?


Thanks.

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 12

That means it's in recovery mode and needs to be restored, since the 4K model doesn't have a USB port you would need to take it to Apple so they can do it. Returns for Apple and most authorized retailers are 15 days, some may offer 30 days. If something was deemed as faulty then the warranty would cover a replacement.
