my fisher and paykel GWL 15 isnt doing anything!?

i have a fisher and paykel GWL 15 that was just bought in Jan 08. I was washing my bed comforter in it this morning and when I went to put the comforter in the dryer, the washing machine was full of water. So i tried to turn the washer back on and it wouldnt come on at all. I got my manual and tried to trouble shoot. I did the 2 references they made, unplugged the washer for about 10 minutes, then also flipped the circuit breaker to no avail. So when my husband came home he started tinkering with it and he did manage to find a pencil sharpener down in the bottom of the machine by the agitator, so we thought YES problem solved, WRONG. it still isnt working but when he turns the agitator ( i believe thats what the middle part is called?) really fast the lights on the washer light up and make noise but its still not coming on. Does anyone have any idea's what it could be? he said he thinks the lid switch is fine and he checked all the hoses for clogs. help!!!
