Hotpoint Washing machine AQ113L297EUK Flashing lights / not unlocking
Towards the end of a bed/bath cycle the machine stopped and all the cycle lights / power light flashed rapidly. I opened the door and washing was dripping wet and possibly not completely rinsed. I set it to a rinse only cycle, that started ok but then went to flashing again. The doorlock light has stayed lit. I set it to spin / empty and it won't start. Now the machine won't unlock and it looks like the drum doesn't spin. I'm going to try opening the pump pre-chamber and see what happens. Hope you can help (again). Thanks.

This will be one of two faults either the machine is not emptying in the allocated period of time and therefore does not allow the machine to go into a spin, this may be from a blockage in the pump or the sump hose and on some occasions could be the outlet waste pipe going to the sink unit.
or you have a problem with the motor on this machine it is a three-phase motor you will either have a problem with this or more likely you will have a problem with the control board that controls the motor PCB you can see all these parts in the diagram below.
