If your Whirlpool Cabrio washer is not filling with water and there are no error codes being displayed, here are some steps you can try to troubleshoot the issue:

  1. Check the Water Supply: Make sure that the water supply valves to the washing machine are turned on and that there is adequate water pressure. If the water pressure is low, the washing machine may not fill with water properly.
  2. Check the Water Inlet Valve: The water inlet valve controls the flow of water into the washing machine. If it is clogged or not functioning correctly, the washing machine may not fill with water. Try cleaning the valve or replacing it if necessary.
  3. Check the Water Level Control: The water level control regulates the amount of water that enters the washing machine. If it is not functioning properly, the washing machine may not fill with water. Try adjusting the control or replacing it if necessary.
  4. Check the Pressure Switch Hose: The pressure switch hose connects the pressure switch to the washing machine tub. If it is clogged or damaged, the washing machine may not fill with water. Try cleaning or replacing the hose if necessary.
  5. Check the Control Board: If none of the above steps work, there may be an issue with the control board. Try resetting the control board by unplugging the washing machine for a few minutes and then plugging it back in. If this does not work, you may need to have the control board replaced by a professional technician.
If you are not comfortable with attempting these steps yourself, it may be best to contact a professional technician for further diagnosis and repair.

Hi

If the washer won't fill you'll need to check for the water inlet hose, the water inlet valve and the pressure/water level switch assembly. Inspect the inlet hose coming to the washer for any blockages. If the hose is not clogged then check the water inlet valve for any clogs, if the water will not even fill for few seconds then certainly the water inlet valve is bad and should be replaced. You can also use a multimeter to check continuity on inlet valve. If you don't get any value on the multimeter then you'll need to replace the water inlet valve assembly. However, if the valve is fine then the pressure/water level switch assembly should be replaced. Hope this helps... Please post back if you need more information.

Code F1, does not stop filling, water pours out of soap tray

Are you sure it's not an F/H error?

The F/H code means the unit isn't detecting water fill at the flowmeter. The flowmeter sits just in front of the inlet valve and is attached via a hose, and off to the left of the CCU. Part link to the flow meter==> http://www.repairclinic.com/PartDetail/Flowmeter/1381535?modelNumber=GHW9250MW2
If your washer is filling ok, check the wiring from the flow meter to the control board; I've seen this harness jiggle loose and cause problems.
