Usually when a machine stops it is waiting for something to happen,ie. fill to correct level or heat to correct temperature or drain water etc. If it stops so soon into the cycle it may point to a blockage in the water level pressure switch as the cause , this being the first action the machine does after locking the door . Try a very hot wash with nothing in the machine , this will usually clear the machine of gunk and allow the switch to work .
