Bosch WFK2801 washing machine - Error Code 06 / no action?

I have a Bosch WFK2801 front loading washing machine.

The unit is currently refusing to do anything (pump, spin,fill) just flashing up error code 06, along with the first 2 LEDs after around 30s of power up.

I *think* error 06 is a door lock problem.

When I apply power I can hear a click and the relay is engaging -- the door cannot be opened, so perhaps this is some kind of sensor problem.

But before I dismantle can anyone confirm or suggest any alternatives.

I've already done the usual cleanout of the waste trap, narrow pipe up from there, and the hex-shaped pipe from the pressure vessel to the pressure switch.

I've not yet cleaned out the pressure vessel.

open waching machine from the back
tray to help the tamble turning while the machine on
if this work and the machine start than you have to change the braches on the motor and this is very easy job.
