Fisher and Paykel washing machine wont fill with water

[mealsonreels]

Good Evening Citizens
I need some help before I go to my man cave get my 14lb hammer and beat my washing machine to death

I have a Fisher & Paykel Smart Drive MW058K
Product number 90103
First problem was… I had water on the floor and it got to the spin cycle and wouldn’t spin
I removed the inspection cover from the front bottom right corner of the outer cover and restarted the machine, looked in the inspection hole while it was performing the wash cycle and water was leaking from the main shaft, when it got to the spin cycle and the grey magnetic cover for the stator was moving clockwise then anticlockwise less than 1/4 of a turn and after approx 20 to 30seconds the machine stopped and showed an error code of 00101000
so I took the washing machine apart

In short I…
Replaced damaged shaft, the seal and both bearings
Replaced the water damaged RPS (rotor position sensor) and
Replaced the Stator due to bad corrosion from the water leak
all with brand new parts
Cleaned corrosion from all wiring to the RPS and the Yellow, Blue and Red wires beside it
Took the water pump apart and flushed clean along with the pipe and cleaned wiring clips
I reassembled the the machine then sat down and had a couple of Speights Gold (BEERS) and patted myself on the back then plugged the bad boy in and turned the water on… fired it up AND… now it refuses to fill with water, instead of a constant flow like it did perfectly before I did all the work It lets the water in in very short bursts then stops and shows an error code of 100000011
SO after reading some of the stuff on here I replaced the main control motor in the top panel, pushed the right buttons and got the four beeps like it said in the instructions and fired it up again
Same problem, short bursts of water then stops and shows an error code of 100000011
For your information: I took a Photo of the old stator and how the RPS was fitted and where it was positioned and made the new stator and RPS exactly the same and the arrows on both are aligned
I do have one question about the grey magnetic stator cover, on the outer part of the cover it has two round circles with numbers and an arrow in each, one point to 10 the other points to 1, on the inside of the cover there is a number 11 and below the number are 3 small round raised nodules in the plastic
any meaning to how it should be refitted back over the stator ??
And as far as I’m aware the stator can only be fitted one way ??

Hope there is someone who can help
