On the purple A600, it sounds like the green RGB component is not working.
Sometimes this can be caused by a coil in the delay line Z222 going open circuit.

The SD/FF probably requires power from the RGB port, check that you have +5V on pin 23 and +12V on pin 22.

Check the RGB output using a C= 1942 or similar monitor.

Using an oscilloscope, check you have RGB signals on input pins 2, 3 and 4 of the video encoder U12, and you have RGB output on pins 21, 22, 23.
It's also possible U12 is faulty.

As for the green LED flashing A600, it sounds like it's constantly resetting.
Probably a bit harder to find.  Could be anything from memory access problems, CPU problems, ROM problems, etc.
