sounds like the solonoid water valve assembly.
they do sometimes go.
cheaper than a new washer.
dont mix the wires up.....
we have had a wd71 for 3 years and the wife can usually kill a washer in 6 months.........
This time ours had a little fault and I got son to help me, I turned my back and he pulled all the wires off a board, then expected me to know where they went......
so I think yours will be easier to fix then ours!
I've set an ebay alert I wont now buy any other washer except a wd71 / wd72, I'd even buy a faulty one!
If anyone reads this and can take/email a photograph of the wires on the boards behind the screen etc (power board with transformer/relays on it)
