Old Navy wants too much for free . we diyers learn by doing for our selves .when I can not fix I either junk it and get new or call the local repair service to have it cat least checked out .
Sounds like corrosion in the motherboard . Get an electronics serviceman to take a look, could just need soldering point to point connection. Hope this helps.
Because of the high spin speeds of front load washers, the doors are equipped with a latch and lock mechanism to prevent the door from being opened during the washers operation. These locks will often be actuated by a solenoid or wax motor to ensure they remain latched during the wash cycle. This model uses a two stage lock that latches the door when the load starts, and then when it is time to spin, the second lock engages to ensure the door is properly secured prior to beginning the spin. When this second lock engages, it also closes a set of switch contacts (the auxiliary door switch) telling the control board the door is closed and locked. If for some reason this switch is not closed, the washer will tumble during what would normally be the spin cycle until the entire cycle is complete.
There's an auxiliary switch in the door lock.switch assembly that is activated at the end of the wash cycle for the machine to advance to the spin cycle. The machine will NEVER advance to the spin cycle unless the auxiliary switch is activated as a safety feature to prevent the door from opening during a high-speed spin cycle that may result in physical injury. The drum tumbles back and forth while the machine control checks the auxiliary if activated but since it's not, the control will not command the motor speed control to spin the drum at high speed. These symptoms may indicate a faulty door lock/switch assembly and may need replacement.

Have you pulled the pump and checked for obstructions? There may be something in the pump itself; you will need to check that...
If your problem can't solve, keep in mind that the error codes means physical wrongs, so, E43 is a door-locking problem or "board comunication problems".
I had a similar problem and found out the "latch" on the washer door broke off. The machine won't run in spin cycle if the door is"open", but it would run through the wash cycle.
It sounds like you may have one or more problems. One of which could be your door lock switch, quite often this part will simply fail over time. If it is faulty it will not lock the door, and for safety reasons will not go into a spin cycle. door switch assembly part number is 131763245. Also the door strike located on the doors edge will sometime break or chip in side the latch and you will have replace both. part number for the strike is 134456600. the other possible problem could be that your motor control board or speed board is faulty and is not sending the proper amperage to your motor telling it to spin. motor control board part number is 134591200. the strike is easy to replace but the others may require a technician.hope this helps
If your washer fills to the correct level, agitates through the wash cycle, and then drains, I would check the door safety switch for proper positioning and switching operation. The switch should have minimal resistance (closed circuit) when it is depressed and high resistance (open circuit) when released.
I had the same problem listed above on my LTF2140ES3...the machine did
everything but do a final spin. In diagnostics I could do the final
spin and the machine kicked out an E43 which is the control board
error.
Following the advice here I changed the door latch first and the problem went away and the unit runs as it should.
You'll get "experts" who say that the unit would not spin at all if the
door latch was bad. I can tell you first hand that they are wrong.
Again the unit did all the normal tumbling but didn't do the high speed
final spin. Again, replacing the door latch fixed the problem. The door
latch is part number 131763245 (AP3886713)
The pressure switch or pressure switch tube could be blocked tricking the machine that it still has water in it therefore not advancing into 'spin mode'.
Or the electronic card could be faulty and require replacing.
