Fixed it. Took the front lower cover off (4 torx screws) and found the bottom tray full of water, Dried it out and now it works. I remember when it went wrong that the inside of the dishwasher was full of fairy liquid bubbles so maybe they caused an overflow. FA must be a float alarm?? If you try this yourself disconnect the mains electric first I had a belt off something. will keep posting incase it faults again
