Beko 7335W Won't Fill

Hi,

I have looked at the link on here about this problem but I still can't resolve the issue and just wanted to seek further advice before either buying spare parts or splashing out on a new machine.

I've a Beko 7335 that's approx 4 years old and it has decided that it doesn't want to fill with water. It spins fine though.

I've checked the filter at the bottom (and am 25p richer!) and checked that the hoses aren't kinked or blocked. The water is coming through to the pipes fine as well, but it's just making the pump noise and nothing is coming through the dispenser drawer.

I thought there may be something else stuck in the bottom filter but I turned the machine on its side and took it off earlier, checked the hoses etc and all seems fine. (I'm not a technician, just a fairly competent DIYer)

After a bit of googling I'm presuming it's the solenoid water inlet valve that's gone wappy, but what do others on here think? I know Beko are relatively rubbish but could do without having to fork out for a new machine right now if poss!

Also, not as important but it just bugs me - the machine often has a mind of its own when selecting programmes and sometimes it decides that it doesn't want to do the 40 cotton wash and will only select the 30 or 60 either side of the dial! Any advice on how to remedy this will be helpful too!

Thanks for any help or advice
