How can I fix my AEG Lavamat 6955?

F1 error is showing. Washing machine works but it seems no water is coming into the drum.

Can this be easily fixed? Thanks

CHECK THE FOLLOWING:- WATER SUPPLY HOSE NOT BLOCKED, FILTER ON HOSE NOT BLOCKED .
IN MY CASE THE SOLINOID VALVE WHICH ALLOWS THE WATER TO ENTER THE WASHING MACHINE, DID NOT OPERATE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VALVE SITS JUST INSIDE THE BACK TOP RIGHT HAND CORNER. THE WATER HOSE IS CONNECTED TO IT. REMOVE BACK PANEL, REMOVE INTERNAL HOSE CONNECTED TO THE VALVE, DO NOT DISCONNECT WATER SUPPLY HOSE, NOW YOU CAN TEST IT BY TURNING ON YOUR MACHINE. THE WATER SHOULD COME OUT WITH SOME FORCE IF NOT REPLACE SOLINOID VALVE. DON'T FORGET TO TURN THE POWER OFF BEFORE REMOVING THE SOLINOID VALVE.
