Indesit Washing Machine Problem (Includes Video)

Hello
I bought a secondhand 6kg Indesit washing machine almost three years ago which has been running fine until recently. When spinning, the machine would make a quiet clicking/ticking type of noise which I didn't pay much attention to as the machine was still functioning fine.
Cut to last night, the machine started making a much louder noise and suddenly stopping mid programme and resetting itself. When I tried to drain the machine, the light glows but nothing happens except some quiet clicking inside the machine. The spin cycle seems to be where it's stopping and resetting itself. If I empty the machine and try to spin, it will spin for a short while but not very fast and then cut out.
I've just initiated a single rinse cycle and recorded some footage. When the spin started it quickly cut out and reset. All of the lights on the panel flash and then the start/pause light flashes intermittently as if the cycle has been manually paused.
Here is a link to the footage. I would greatly appreciate any advice as to what this issue could be and also whether it's worth me trying to repair it or if it's a bigger issue than the machine is worth. Thank you!
