LG Washer Not Filling With Water
A machine that will not start and one that will not fill are frequently the same problem wearing different clothes: the door interlock. Here is how to tell that apart from a genuine water-supply fault.
Common Causes
A door interlock that will not confirm
A front-loader will not begin a cycle until the lock reports engaged, so a failing interlock looks exactly like a dead machine.
A closed tap or blocked inlet screen
The mesh filters where the hoses meet the machine silt up over years and choke the fill without any warning.
A failed water inlet valve
The solenoid that admits water can fail open or closed, and a closed failure stalls the cycle before it starts.

There is no emergency here, but there is a clock. Faults like this get worse on their own schedule rather than staying put, and the repair is cheaper before the failing part takes something else with it — a few days, not a few months.

Either way, our repair service covers same-day diagnosis and a flat-rate quote before any work begins.
