    Probably the inlet screen on the water valve on back of washing machine is clogged up. Remove the hoses and look at both screens. Take a pair of hemostats and remove the screens and clean them well with an old toothbrush and replace them. Look at the hoses to see if there are screens on them, too. If you still have any problem then the water valve is faulty, but see if this cures the problem, first.
