A flashing status light when it is not starting up or updating, may indicate a failure to start up properly.

Try unplugging from power for a minute. Then try again.

If the issue persists, then the software may have to be re-installed (restored). Unfortunately, with the 4K model, users can’t do that themselves through a computer. Contact Apple for an appointment.
