This error code indicates that the motor is having difficulty turning.
Are the shipping bolts removed?
All four (4) shipping bolts and the plastic spacers must be removed from the rear of the washer before you operate it. Each unit is shipped from the factory with four bolts, which are designed to secure the washer during shipping. Failure to remove all of the shipping bolts, and the four plastic spacers that are with them, can result in noise, vibration or error codes. See the Installation Instructions for details; find them by entering your model number in the search tool below.
Were you washing a very large load?
The washer may be overloaded for the cycle you are running. Remove a few items from the load. See the Cycle Guide in the Use and Care guide for loading suggestions for each cycle.
To remove the error display, press Power once. Then press Power again to restart the washer.
If pressing Power does not work:

  1. Unplug the washer or disconnect the power for one minute.
  2. Plug in the washer or reconnect the power.
  3. Re-select the cycle and press Start.

We have a hot point washer. That's washing ok spins ok some times. But once machines been turned off and I come to do another load. The machine is full of wTer why???

Maybe the cold/hot water inlet valve has a faulty seat or seal that is allowing water to leak thru to washer despite the valve being closed. Probably need to replace that valve. Look at some of these links on YouTube on repairing or diagnosing water problems:
hot point washer machine fills up with water with machine shut off YouTube
