The water trickles into the machine?

I have a 80 series kenmore ultra faric care washing machine. When I turn the machine on water trickles into the machine and it takes 30 or more minutes to fill. I've checked all the intake hoses and they are all clear. What is the problem?

Either low water pressure or a blockage. Take the hoses off where they go into the machine and look into the valves. They have a small filter here which can get blocked. To clean them pull them out with a pair of pliers and reverse wash them under the tap.
