If the washing machine is very slow to gain water, the problem is often the following:
Weak water pressure
If water becomes very slow to enter the washing machine,centralized water supply system. Also check the inlet faucet that supplies water to the washing machine, it may not be fully open.
The inlet filter of the
was clogged. Before the inlet valve there is a filter, which is a fine mesh. This component of the construction is necessary to delay large particles of debris and dirt, which are usually present in tap water. Over time, this filter clogs and the washing machine begins to poorly draw water.
Important! To prevent such problems, try cleaning the inlet valve filter regularly.
When the unit does not gain enough water for this reason, the problem is solved easily:
- Disassemble the styralka.
- Remove the strainer.
- Wash the screen under the pressure of running water.
- Set all items to their original position.
If you do not clean the filter in time, eventually it will completely clog and the machine will stop filling at all.
Important! Also, the reason that the washing machine does not enter the water can be the clogging of an additional filter for the liquid entering the drum.

If you have chosen a program for washing things and run your washing machine, and water does not enter it at all, the problem can be one of the following.
The water supply tap in the washing machine
is blocked. If the washing machine does not fill the water, first of all, check the water supply tap on the washing machine. Usually this element of construction is installed in the place of attachment of a rubber hose coming from the stylalk to the pipeline.
Important! The lever, which opens the water supply, should be located along the hose, that is, in the direction of water movement.
No water or weak head
One of the simplest and most common situations of not supplying water to a washing machine is the complete absence of water in the tap. To our great regret, unplanned outages of water supply, especially in the summer, happen quite often. If you notice that your washing machine is not filled with water, then to establish and eliminate this cause, open the water tap. If there is too little pressure or no water at all, consider that the cause is set.
Important! To solve the problem, it is necessary to find out the causes and timing of the water pipe malfunction. You will have to continue washing after the renewal of the full-value water supply.
Do not close the door of the load hatch
Washing machines have a huge number of different protections, one of which is to lock the automatic washing system with an open or not closed door for loading laundry. First, make sure that the door is tightly closed and not dangling, for which you press it with your hand.
If the door is not fixed during manual closing, the locking tab is likely to be damaged. Also in the lock of the body of the washing machine the latch can break.

More complicated reasons why water enters the washing machine badly, can be a breakdown of one of the components of the household appliance. Most often, users have to deal with the following problems:
- The operation of the water supply valve is broken. If there is a signal from the module, the water supply valve opens. If the valve mechanism fails, the washing machine tank can not be filled. In this situation, replace the valve.
- Electronic module failure. Since electronics do not provide a signal for the need to dial water, this does not happen. This situation is the opposite of the previous one. The valve is ready to function, but the module does not give a signal. The electronic module can be either replaced or refl ected, but it is not worth doing this work independently. Call the master from the service center.
- Water sensor does not work. This electronic element controls the amount of water coming in for washing. The washing process can not start when the sensor fails. The item must be replaced.
- The device blocking the hatch has broken. A symptom of this reason is that at the beginning of the wash the light signaling "lock" works. The locking device protects the machine from the dangerous opening of the door during washing or spinning.
- The drain filter is clogged. When the filter is clogged, the electronic control unit receives a signal that the drainage system is not ready for operation and the machine can not start washing. The cause, of course, can be a pump failure. But most often this is due to the clogging of the drain filter.
Note that the reason for the failure of the washing machine to recruit water at the beginning of the wash is only probable malfunctions. In each specific case, the whole picture of the events occurring before the breakdown should be considered. Probably, there was a strong voltage drop in the network or the rules of operation of the household appliance were violated.
Important! If in doubt, it is better not to start self-repair, and immediately seek help from a qualified specialist. It will be easier for the master to determine the cause of the failure and eliminate it than to correct other people's mistakes.
