It did go int he restore mode but ended with the blank screen and blinking white light.
Can someone either provide me the sd card image or point me to something on how to fix this?
Thanks
I had exactly the same issue!
I hope this image reset works

I tried taking image backup of my kobo clara hd card and it failed. I tried different tools and nothing seems to work.
Anyone faced a similar situation? If yes, how did you solve it?

If the issue is on the current card, taking an image of it an using it on another card probably won't help. You will probably be copying the problems from one card to the other. Doing a factory reset might help, but, the supplied image should work on a new card.

Thank you for the image. Real stupid question, should I format the card and flash it with the new image and pop it in?

You need to write the image to the card with the appropriate tool/command. It contains everythingon the card, so formatting it first is a waste of time.
