Error Code Oe (or Maybe 0e)

My washing machine keeps showing error code OE and is not draining after the rinse cycle.  This started when I tried to wash a rubber backed floor matt in cold water. Is there any way to open the washer and check for a blockage in the drain pipe?  Any other ideas? Thanks!
