Why wont my washing machine fill with water?

sounds funny but is this a new machine? if so check to make sure the caps were removed before filling.... if its not a new machine then chances are the screens are plugged with crap... rust... dirt...exe... just look inside the holes where the hoses connect and see if anything is in there.. remove it there is.. The worst case is a fill valve silinoid which controls when the water comes in and stops. Price is approx...$20 $30 to replace just take the back off the washer and you'll see the part where the water comes in. Take the part off and see your local service man along with Brand/ model # and Serial #
GOOD LUCK
