  Christina StevensAug 27, 2025
  If your LG washer is not filling properly, ensure the filters (blue and orange screens) are free of solids. Turn off the water and check the filter by disconnecting the hose at the machine. Also, check that the fill hoses are not kinked or clogged. Make sure that the water supply is turned on and the faucets are completely open. The washer lid must be closed for all cycle operations. Ensure the hot water supply connects to the hot inlet and the cold water supply connects to the cold inlet.
