Could be something in the pump. The pump is on the bottom of the tub.
It has a locking tab which you release and then twist the pump a hair and it will fall out. Warning: Have rags ready! I have the original GWL service manual and the GWL 11 supplimental manual. Let me know if you want them.

Take the lid off,just open it & pull it straight up.There should be a little red button that the lid strikes against unless its a different model,in that case it has a magnetic reed switch under the right hand side of the hob.press this red switch instead of closeing lid,see if it fill with no problem.the lid may not be making good contact with switch..if thats not it then it may be the inlet valve..then you can try the hot,if theres no problem with hot then its the cold valve.

Testimonial: "Very helpful, as I was completely ignorant about the workings of a washing machine. Replied promptly and had a good sense of humour - important in a crisis!"

LID WON'T LOCK & LID LOCK LIGHT WON'T COME ON

I would suspect that your lid lock switch is faulty, or maybe it has come unplugged from the motor controller module. You can access this by removing the whole top moulding but I cannot remember now how to do this now. But it wasn't difficult. Hunt around and download a copy of the service manual and the IPB.

Possible fault in the lid switch or if your test of the switch is showing continuity then the main program controller module is a suspect.

Lid lock indicator flashes and washer will not spin

The lid lock switch is defective and tthough the lid is closed the contact is not short . This connection must be establised as the safety feature when lid is opened to stop the motor from rotating.
So remove the lid switch which is fixed on the hinges section and a possible contact spray can rectify the switch contact. If not replace and set for the washer to spin.
