What Probably Breaks Down If Your Frontloading Washing Machine Is Overloaded.

I filled to full the drum of my washing machine with cotton linens. I set it to prewash. after putting the necessary amount of soap poweder, I started the cycle. after a minute, i noticed that the machine suddenly beeped as in the cycle has already ended. I restarted the machine. Then I heard a sound like (bzzzzzt) then suddely all light indicators on the machine turned off. I immediately turned the machine off. But when I try to turn the setting knob to wash, there is no more light coming on any of the indicators. I do not know what to do about it now.

Take everything out of the unit first, then unplug or turn the unit off at the household circuit breaker for about 10 minutes. Then retry with less clothing in it. See if anything changes. You might have blocked a sensor inside the drum and it shut itself down for safety reasons.
