Hi my Beko WM5140W washing machine is only filling water for about 2-3 seconds when starting any cycle, then stops. if the power button is turned off/on then it starts filling again but for 2-3 seconds and stops. If this is repeated it gets to the required water level and stops filling. After turning the power button off/on the motor starts turning then stops after 2-3 seconds and repeats every time the the power button is pressed. Any help would be appreciated.

check the water inlet valves.should both be around 3-4kohms.if one is open circuit it might be the issue

There is usually a water level sensor, in the way of a pressure sensor. I have found that some time the pipe blocks. You would need to open up the machine to sort it. The level sensor is about 3" diameter, connected via a pipe, down to the drum, the pipe does clog up, due to the soap. you would need to find that and clear the pipe. That is the first thing to check. After that, yes possibly control unit
