If you see a continuously flashing status light, that indicates a failure to start up properly. If you haven’t already done so, first try a cold restart (disconnect from power for a minute or two). If that doesn’t improve it, then the system software may need to be re-installed externally. Unfortunately, for the 4K model, users can’t do this themselves. Instead, contact Apple Support for assistance.
