My Zanussi zwf1621 Front Loading washing machine sticks mid-cycle?

Hi, I have a John Lewis machne which is apparently Zanussi and it is operating similar to yours, it is only 3.5 years old. It is commencing a cycle then part way through stops and the digital tinmer reverts to the start position but the machne is stalled. Like you I am then manually, draining, spinning etc. At one point an error code of E52 popped up but now no error codes or any explanation. I think this sounds like the circuit board?
