I'm not certain but on my Hotpoint dw, i had a fault code which i cant now recall which was the water level safety switch in the base. essentially if the machine floods into the base of the machine there is a float switch which stops the machine from running. pull off the bottom cover and feel inside the the pressed steel frame, if its full of water then drain it with a sponge (soak it up!) it takes a while but does work!,having said that it may not but it is easy to check!.

try diynot.com, they've got an appliances section and a resident washing machine engineer by the looks of things.
