Do you mean it flashes once and then stops, or is it flashing in some sort
of sequence?
Mine flashes once and then goes off, that is normal. If there is a flashing
sequence then it means there is a fault and the led is
displaying the fault code.

The Commodore 128 does not have an IEEE port. I think your confusing the
Userport connector on the C128 with the IEEE connector on the PET, although
they look the same they have completely different functionality. So anyone
with a Vic 20, C64 or C128 will need an appropriate interface adaptor.
