Our front load washing machine will not fill enough to start the cycle. It starts to fill, then stops after about an inch of water has entered the drum. The cycle just doesn’t start, timer doesn’t even countdown. Checked hoses, not kinked & water runs fine from the taps. (Perhaps an issue in the inlet valve within the washer?) Drained hose and cleaned filter in the bottom. Door says it’s locked so I assume the sensor works? But I’m open to that sensor potentially being the problem. Once we cancel, the water drains no problem. Is it the motor? Electronics? Voltage? I’m at a loss! Thanks!
