This sounds like what mine is doing right now. Stops and beeps and flashes 'long wash' and 'short wash' LED's at the same time

That is fault code 130 which is a fault coming from the RPS (rotor position sensor) which is mounted on top of the motor copper winding. Some times caused by corrosion causing a bad connection. You will have to lie the machine down on it's front. Remove the rotor bowl from the motor. Loosen the 4 bolts holding the copper stator winding and pull it down slightly. Remove wiring plug from RPS & check for corrosion on contacts. Clean away corrosion & replace all parts. If fault persists then put in a new RPS.

I need to know if you are counting the lights along the top row from left to right or right to left. It makes a big difference to the error code.
