Cold water not filling Fisher Paykel ecosmart GWL11 washer?

When I turn on my Fisher Paykel ecosmart GWL11 washing machine selecting cold water I only get a tiny burst of water followed by a dribble. After 4 minutes the machine does its musical beeping and the hot and cold lights flash red simultaneously. The hot water is working perfectly. I have disconnected the hose at both ends and nothing is clogged. With the cold hose attached to the wall and disconnected from the machine I have tested it and plenty of water comes through the hose. The small white plastic filter inside the washer connection is also clean. Is there anything else I can check or is it time to call a repairman?

Success. I have installed the cold water valve - actually not that difficult - and the machine is working well.Thanks for the help guys!

Thank you Johnny Hotpoint and Lincoln Appliance. I have ordered a cold water valve(not sure if it is also known as the inlet valve) from a local appliance store. The gentleman there used an old washer to show me how to open it up and how to swap out the valve. Hopefully in a few days I'll have a functioning washer again. Thank you for telling me what to ask for.

You have done all the right things in checking filters & water supply etc. You will need to have a new inlet valve fitted. Fairly easy to do yourself if you are confident. If not then call a service company. Shouldn't cost too much but get a couple of phone quotes first from different companies. Their is a big difference in callout fees from one to the other.
