I Got Scared For a While.

I am doing laundry for the comforters.
On my second load, with 15 minutes left to finish, I heard it alert, and I saw a blinking error on the screen. I tried doing some tricks but still the same. My mind is already rushing, thinking about whether we have to buy again so soon or if I am going to call a repairman. The machine is around 4-5 years old already but I am not ready to buy one again. 
I turned it off, waited a few seconds before turning it on again and I entered a new cycle, which is rinse and spin. It started well, and now the laundry is done! Yes!

It probably just needed a good restart. On smartphones, we call it a hard reset.

It is scary when appliances act possessed and seem to be failing.
