What does "checkhealth -svc -detail" say?

Is it blinking on node cage, disk cage (if you have any additional cages) or both?

I have seen this.
We Open a Loooong Case and check everything. :?

At the end we found that simply someone have pressed accidently the Button above the LCD.
(Mute Buton)

We ran into this on our 7450. Support had no idea, logs showed nothing. Eventually the escalated tech just told us to completely power cycle the array and it went away..... haven't seen it since.

Ohh, sorry, this was the blinking LCD, not the LED.

Maybe a Power Suplly Problem?
Try this:
cgcmd -tc tty -C cageX -c report_faults -p a
cgcmd -tc tty -C cageX -c report_faults -p b

If in any of above commands output, it is observed "DC UNDER VOLTAGE", reseat the PCM that has this error.
Run the same command again and check if the error gets cleared and on the front panel the amber LED is off.
If the issue does not resolve, replace the affected PCM.

- You can open a Support Case.
- Check the Power Cable
- Remove and Insert the Power Supply
