Hoover new wave 1100 wont wash or spin?

carbon brushes, motor, door catch, pump all seem OK. Stopped washing and pumped out but failed to spin, now will not either wash or spin. Any ideas please.

I have a machine I am due to visit with the same fault, Andy at washerhelp.com suggests it might be a faulty heater. The machine appaprently aborts the cycle if it can't get the water up to temp. Symptom is: fill, agitate for about 5 minutes or so, attempt to heat water, abort, pump dry and produce error code E1.
Likely fixes are: bad or broken wire to heater, burnt out or limescaled heater, duff controller PCB (less likely).
Sounds fairly major to get to but if you are electrically-savvy, hope this pointer helps.
