Most likely causes

- drain valve and pump clogging
- worn drum bearings with out-of-balance vibration

Quick check — and when it's not DIY
There's one thing worth checking before you book anyone: try a different outlet if one's available, to rule out a dead circuit rather than the unit itself. Beyond that, a control board fault has to be tested with a meter against the service manual — swapping the board on a guess is an expensive way to be wrong.
