A continuously flashing status light may signify a failure to start up correctly, and you may need to have the system software re-installed.

Unfortunately, for the Apple TV 4K model, if you have no access to the menus, then you can’t do this restore yourself. Restore your Apple TV - Apple Support. If so, then contact Apple Support, or make a reservation at a Genius Bar, or contact an Apple Authorized Service Provider.
