F&P smart drive, keeps stopping and alarming?

Hi, my washing machine stops after a few seconds on all cycles, it starts and then stops, from left to right the lights are 3, 5,7,8, I have checked the pump and checked the balance switch and they seem fine

That is error code 43 which is saying the out of balance switch is faulty. If you push the bowl to the right rear corner gently you should hear the switch click on & off. Better still, turn power off at wall. Open the panel top and locate out of balance switch under the right hand end of the main control box. Depending on model number, you may or may not have to remove all the wires first. Once control box is lifted up, remove the two wires on the out of balance switch & remove switch. Check for corrosion & button sticking. Replace with a new one if doubtful. Make sure you take a note or picture before removing any wires so you put them back exactly
