my washing machine Zanussi AQUACYCLE FX1465W?

my washing machine stopped working suddenly, I have the Start/Pause button that flash and makes a click noise all the time.
I had my clothes inside and i could not take them out. When finally I succeded there where not spinned. i tried to start the machine again, but the start button still makes the same noise and it won't start.
I checked the drain pipe it is clear.
i must say that yesterday while the washing machine was still working, my husbund switched it off, can this have been caused the problem?
thank you
