From everything I am seeing this is a very common problem with this particular model. It does seem that the E2 error code indicates that the washer is having trouble draining during a regular cycle, although being reset to a drain and spin only cycle seems to work (yes, this is a bit of a hassle).
Ultimately, this is going to be a fix for the repaiman I'm afraid.
