Hi friend, thanks for your inquiry!

If your washer continues to display an error code of "PAU" it could be an issue with your door lock but if the door strike is not sitting properly within the latch your washer will continue to provide the error code "PAU". Additionally, if your control panel is registering that the door is closed you may continue to experience the "PAU" code. I would recommend having a professional come and properly diagnosis your washer to prevent any unnecessary part purchases. I hope this is helpful. -OOS

SOURCE: Frigidaire Washer stuck on pause

does the unit have standing water still in it.if so use a shop vac and attach it to the end of the drain hoseand removed all the water the check you drain pump for any kind of foriegn object that may be stopping the impellar wheel.the door lock may also be bad, the last but maybe the first thing is a bad control board

ATF8000FS1 will not start and flashes error and no spin

Hello Tim Houk - Is the washer making a humming noise? If so, either the drain hose or pump is clogged and needs cleaning. Will the drum manually rotate (when it is not in use)? If it does not, then the drum could possibly be unbalance and/or have a broken shock/bearing. Verify that the door is securely latching or it will also prevent the washer from starting. I strongly suggest contacting a professional to move forward accurately to assist with the repairs.

I recommend purchasing "Affresh" for front loading washers. It is used to clean and freshen up your washer. It can usually be found at any major brand grocery store
