Have you disconnected it from the socket to try a reset? If not firstly try this, if flashing continues, please hold down the on/off button continuously for about 5-10 seconds during that time it will beep or flash but keep hold until this master resets the dishwasher, then try a normal cycle, this should then resolve this, unless the PCB board has gone wrong, in which case I would contact the maker of it is still under warrentee, if no warrentee then call a local repair person, most offer a free quote if you ask for one... I hope this helps....

SOURCE: Rinse aid not being released

Most likely the actuator for the rinse aid dispenser is not functioning.

Pushing and holding the 'Heated Dry' button should turn off the light over the padlock symbol and get you going again.

SOURCE: Cancel Light Flashing on Kitchen Aid Dishwasher

I ran into this same problem. Cutting the power didnt reset it.

After power reset, mine had the normal led blinking. If I pressed cancel, then the cancel and china button leds would start blinking too.

I pulled out the trouble shooting guide (from behind the baseboard kick panel under the dishwasher door). It that if the dishwasher wont run and button LEDs are blinking there is a short circuit in the keypad. It gave a keypad diagnostic sequence which I followed. (disconnect keypad and try to initiate the diagnostic cycle without the keypad by disconecting the yellow leads to OWI sensor twice in less than 6 seconds.

I could hear the diagnostic cycle start, so the problem is a bad keypad. Will order a new one tomorrow and let you know if it works.

SOURCE: Cannot unscrew cap on rinse aid compartment in door of Whirlpool Gold Quiet Partner III

the cap doesn't come off, you just have to open the door all the way. then, when you pour the rinse aid into the dial area, it will get sucked into the dispenser. but if the door isn't open all the way it won't go anywhere and will overflow on you.

Good Afternoon Sandra, thank you for your question!

Let's try resetting the dishwasher by either unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker to the off position. It is important to wait roughly ten minutes and then turn dishwasher back on. Confirm that the door is properly latched and try selecting a cycle. If resetting the power does not correct the issue, it could potentially mean a number of things: a potential wiring failure, damaged cord, faulty door latch assembly or control board. Because it could be a number of any one of several underlying causes, I would recommend contacting a professional to properly diagnose and repair the appliance.

Flashing Lights that I can't cancel out.

The symptom you describe indicates that the main controller card (PCB) has failed. Recommend you schedule a service call.
You did the right thing by removing power for at least 90 seconds. Alas, the problem is beyond simple repair.
