Thanks so much for posting that problem. I had the exact same problem with the 2 lights flashing mid cycle with no rinse or spin. We checked behind the filter and found 2 colour catcher sheets that I had just started to use recently. So should be fine now. Thanks

ive discovered the answer, so ill post it incase anyone else reads and needs.

i found that it was telling me the machine didnt carry out the final rinse and spin, and this was due to the drain pump being blocked with a sock. i didnt notice this first time around aas the sock was caught in the pipework behind the filter
