 The Clean and Light Rinse buttons blinking together mean the unit has detected a fault.  I believe yours is low current sensed.  The information is listed on your schematic behind the kick-plate.  The selections are numbered 1-7 with 1 being the selection just to the right of the window.  What number would Light Rinse be??  If it is Keypad 2, then your fault is low current sensed.  You would want to ohm your motor from the board down to see if it reads correctly.  You should have a connector on the board that has a White,, Red, Gray and Yellow.  You will also want to find another connector that has an Orange and Blue.  Pull these off and let them hang in the air.  The tests you will want to do are:

Blue to Gray- 7 ohms
Blue to Red- 7 ohms
Blue to Yellow- 3 ohms

If your checks come up correct, and your voltage to the unit is a constant 120VAC +or- 10% then your board is bad.  If one or more of your tests comes up incorrect, you will want to ohm the motor directly using the same test points listed above.  If any of the tests fail to read within specs again (usually open completely) then your motor is bad.  If it ohms correctly at the motor, but not from the board down, then the Harness is open.
