Possible Causes

Closed or partially closed water tap, Blocked inlet hose filter screens, Faulty water inlet valve, Low household water pressure

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off the water supply and unplug the appliance before disconnecting hoses.

  • Check water supply:
    • Ensure the tap feeding the washer-dryer is fully open.
    • Verify other taps in the house have normal pressure.
  • Clean inlet filters:
    • Turn off the tap and remove the inlet hose from the back of the machine.
    • Use pliers to gently pull out the small mesh filter from the valve.
    • Rinse under running water and remove debris.
  • Test inlet valve:
    • With the hose removed, briefly open the tap to confirm good flow.
    • If flow is good but the machine still does not fill, the inlet valve coil may be faulty and should be replaced.
  • Check for kinks: Ensure the inlet hose is not kinked or crushed behind the appliance.
