We have an aeg 86720 oko-lavamat washing machine which we bought four
years ago, and which has functioned without trouble up until today.
During the most recent load of wash it started buzzing and flashing an
error code "C3". The door will not open under these circumstances. I
checked the screen filter on the water hose, and it is clear. Turning
the electricity on and off causes a small amount of water to be pumped
out, so there is no apparent blockage on the output and I would guess
that the pump is working ok.

[T] Maybe the pump is working till the object that is causing it to
stop, stops it again? (we had similar with a cocktail stick in our
AEG)

Have you checked / cleaned the filter?

All the best ..
