Won't fill

Washer won't fill with water

Samsung · Washing Machines

What does Won't fill mean?

The washing machine is not taking in water or filling to the correct level for a cycle. This often indicates issues with the water supply, hoses, or inlet filters.

Common Causes

  • Kinked or clogged water supply hose
  • Clogged water inlet filter
  • Water supply valves not fully open
  • Incorrect hot/cold water supply hose connections

Repair Steps & Checklist

Click steps to track your progress.

  1. 1

    Check that both hot and cold water supply hoses are straight, not kinked or clogged.

  2. 2

    Ensure the hot and cold water supply valves behind the washer are fully open.

  3. 3

    Turn off water supply valves, disconnect hoses, and inspect/clean the water inlet filters for debris.

  4. 4

    Verify that the hot and cold water supply hoses are connected to the correct inlets (blue to blue, red to red).

  5. 5

    Ensure the drain hose is extended completely and free of debris, as an improperly draining washer might prevent filling.
