had same problem pulled it to bits and blew through (you need the mains feed to it so the valve is open - so be careful) now seems ok

sounds like the inlet valve has failed unless the cold water is turned off..... might be a little more expensive as this has a double cold inlet vale being a washer dryer.
the only way is to test with a multimeter on the valve coil.... UNPLUG FROM THE MAINS if you carry out this test.
