I share your frustration. I had the exact same fault which is now fixed thanks to a local spares shop explaining the error codes

If the front led's are both on and the door is locked then it is one of three possible problems...
1. motor brushes worn - most probable cause - it was for me.
2. door interlock
3. heater element

new pump (old one fell apart in my hands) and new brushes seems like problem solved!

I wish someone would answer............I've got exactly the same problem on exactly the same machine occuring today [02.02.07] - some kind of coincidence!
