hi guys, hope you can help me.

i have a hotpoint aquarius wf 250.
recently it stopped working. - so far i have taken the pump off the bottom of the drum and emptied it of the usual pennies and other random objects - i put it back together and it still displays the flashing lights.
when i turn it on the power light flashes on and off rapidly and the top two lights on the extra buttons near the left of the machine flash too but more slowly - if you can give me any ideas that would be great as i have no clothes and am starting to smell! lol!

cheers
