I had the same problem with my wjs 1265w, luckily it was under extended warranty. In my case there were a number of blue wires which connect the control panel to the main circuit board.
These wires and connectors were replaced, but it may be worth just taking them apart, cleaning with suitable electrical cleaner and reassembling. I know its not the same model as yours but could be worth a try.
