Did you replace both valves with new ones? If you did then it sounds like the control module may be faulty & not delivering the correct voltage to fully open the valve. You should never assume that by replacing a part it will correct the fault. You should of proven that the valves were faulty first, otherwise you just throw your money away. Also, when it beeps what error code is showing? That will be exactly which lights are on & which are off along the top row. Count from left to right. Does it also beep when it stops on the spin cycle? Is that a different error code from when it is trying to fill?
