Washer was working during the wash cycle but after it drained the wash water went through the spin, it would not refill for the rinse cycle. The washer just made a low buzzing noise and would not fill. Any suggestions?

My Washer isn't getting any Cold Water | Los Angeles Appliance Service Washing Machine Repair (http://losangelesappliancerepairservice.com/washing-machines/my-washer-isnt-getting-any-cold-water/)
Washing machines have an electrically operated valve in them called a “water mixing valve”. This valve has separate solenoids for the hot and cold water. It's very possible that the cold water solenoid isn't working. Besides the cold water solenoid on the water mixing valve not working, it could also be that the shut off valve to the machine's cold water supply hose is closed or that the filtration screen in that supply hose is clogged up.
Note the picture in the link, to find this valve and check its operation after you check the cold water filtration screens in the supply hose. Let me know if it solves your problem.
