Does anyone know what to do when your Apple TV won’t turn on and the white light keeps blinking

Can anyone help me with my issue please. My Apple TV has the white light on the front blinking and will not turn on. How do I reset it without having it on.? I have tried everything

A continuously flashing status light signifies a failure to start up properly. The system software may need to be reinstalled. Unfortunately, for the 4K models, uses can’t restore their box through a computer themselves. Instead, contact Apple Support for assistance.
