Clogged filters are another thing that prevents water from getting into the tub. In this case, the fix is simple — remove the filters and make sure there’s no dirt or debris on them.

After the washer filters are clean, reconnect the hoses back to the appliance and plug it back in. Check for leaks to ensure you found the right cause of the problem

When your washing machine won’t fill, it makes sense to suspect hose malfunctions — here are the most common ones:

• Hoses aren’t well-connected to the appliance — thus, there’s no steady water flow.
• A kinked hose prohibits water from passing through.
• Hoses are damaged so water is leaking out instead of making it to the drum.

Depending on the issue you have with the hoses, different fixes apply. If it’s a kink, straightening the hose is all it takes to solve the problem. If there’s visible damage, you need a replacement hose.

Many homeowners are surprised to hear that pressure chamber blockage has something to do with the washing machine not filling with enough water. If there’s too much air in the pressure tubes, the machine will not stop spinning even when there’s no water in the tub.

If your machine can run with no water in it, you can be positive that the pressure chamber is the problem. Removing the air tube and cleaning it thoroughly is an efficient way of troubleshooting the issue.

The solenoid, also known as an inlet valve, is a two-way tube that connects the streams of water from the cold and hot water faucets to the washer. Among all the issues that lead to water supply obstruction, this is the one our technicians have to deal with the most.

The common way to deal with inlet valve malfunctions is to replace the valve. However, the selector settings could be to blame as well — run through them to make sure they are well-adjusted.

Sometimes, fully pressing the control on the panel is an easy and highly efficient fix that allows your washer to fill with water.
