The Clean Light is Blinking and it will not let me start a new cycle. It's like it's stuck on the clean sensor. I have tried hitting cancel and the 2 min comes up and it makes a noise like it is draining ( nothing to drain ) and then it flashes clean again.The Clean Light is Blinking and it will not let me start a new cycle.

is the light oven on??? can you see the switch/button that the door would hit against to turn light off?? if so depress button so the lifht goes off, and start a clean cycle.This should make the lock mechanism engage fully. then cancel cycle and should fully disengage lock/latch (you need to depress light switch to trick unit into thinkin the door is closed)
The timer works like a clock if you like. The cycle starts at 12:00 finishes around 11:55. When you open the door, the timer advances to the 12:00 position resetting itself to the start of a new cycle. The door has to be open for about 12 seconds. Check on the left side door hinge bracket and see how it plays on the door switch. old doors on the SR24's had an issue of the hinge screw coming loose which triggered the switch too soon. You should be able to rest the door against the tank without the maching running. The switch should close as the door engages the latch.
This flashing light indicates that your cycle or start-up was interrupted. Possible causes: The door opened during the cycle, or the power was interrupted. To resume operation: Make sure the door is closed, and press Start/Resume.
The Clean light is flashing
You should call for service if the Clean light is flashing and the machine is inoperable. It is normal if the Clean light stays on after the cycle is complete. The Clean light is an indication that the dishwasher has been run and that the dishes inside it are clean. Once the door is opened after the cycle is complete, the light will shut off.
The lights are rapidly flashing
Any key that gets stuck will rapidly flash. Press the key a few times in order to release it or press Cancel.
The Rinse Only light is rapidly flashing
If multiple keys are stuck, the Rinse Only light will flash. Press each key, one at a time, to release the stuck keys, or press cancel.
Hi Thanks
for using FixYa. If the clean light flashes, pauses, and then repeats.
When the dishwasher doesn't sense a water temperature increase, it stops
working and locks the functions (clean light flashes, all buttons are
non responsive). It does this as a safety in case the element is broken and
feeding electrical current into the water.
To resolve this you will have to reset the console. Do this by closing the door
and press these buttons in sequence...
-high temp wash -heated
dry -high
temp wash -heated
dry
All the lights will turn on briefly and the machine will start a diagnostic
cycle. You can press cancel or let the diagnostic cycle finish (1-2
minutes). You should now be able to run the dishwasher as normal. If the
issue returns, you could have a problem with the heating circuit (i.e. element,
thermostat or wiring). It rarely happens but it could also be the door
switch not engaging properly when the door is closed (slightly bend the door
latch down making sure it doesn't hit the door when you close it). Please do
accept the solution if the issue is resolved or else revert for further
assistance. Thanks Rylee

Check that the door is closed, and ckeck the door sensor. if the door sensor is OK, you may need to replace the cycle timer. See also suggestions here.
