Then turn the water on to make sure you’re getting proper water pressure. Also check the screens that are inserted into the water valve where they connect to the washer. If they need cleaned do not remove them. take a small brush and clean them.

Take each number 7 hose loose from where it connects to number 23 “only one at a time” and place the end of that hose into some sort of container or jar that can hold water. Start the washer on a warm wash. Does the water just trickle out into the container? Or does it come out normally? Make sure to do this test with only one hose at a time making sure that the other is still connected.

Maybe, but before that conclusion is reached it would be a good idea to check and see if proper voltage is getting to the valve during fill. You should be getting 120 Volts AC at the terminals of each of the two coils of the valve.
