RED CPU DEBUG LIGHT

I've had my pc for a good 4+ years with almost 0 issues until recently. I woke up and tried turning my computer on but instead I get a CPU debug light on. The only modifications that I've made recently (past 6 months) was a new headset (couple of days ago) and updated my BIOS firmware (2 months ago). I fixed it initially by re-plugging in the CPU cord on the motherboard but when I turned it off again and tried turning it back on again, another CPU debug light. I tried re-plugging in the cord again and that didn't work. What steps do I try now?

CPU: i5-9400f
GPU: RX 570 4gb 
Motherboard: Gigabyte z390 UD rev 1.1
PSU: ASUS TUF-Gaming 650w 80PLUS bronze
RAM: 4x8GB DDR4 3666Mhz Corsair Vengeance LPX

try reseating your cpu as well as checking the mobo pins to see if any of them are bent and checking every power connector
