Affinity front load washer (FAFW4011LWO)

Issue: Machine will start a cycle, door locks, water runs and fills, drum turns for a minute or so then stops, the machine sits for a second, then the door unlocks and pause screen comes up. After that, it won't run at all, or drain, until I leave it unplugged for a while. If I start it up again, it will drain effectively, but repeats the same cycle again.

What I've Tried:

- Cleaned out the tub-to-pump drain hose. There were some coins inside, but water seemed to flow freely.
- Visually Checked water flow from hoses. Pressure appears normal.
- Checked the screens on the intakes. Clean.
- Replaced the control board. I probably shouldn't have spent so much money on a crap shoot, but, I gambled and lost. This didn't solve the issue.
- Checked error codes. The first few times I did this I got E11, which is what made me check the intakes and hoses. ( I did not test the pump.) I cleared the error code, and now it just displays E00.

I thought it might be the door lock, but I can hear it engaging. Could it still be the pump, even though it does drain sometimes?

Thanks for your help.

Josh
