What component should be checked first if a washing machine does'nt fill-up with water and water supply is on?

Shut the water off at the supply hoses and then take off the hoses at the washing machine. Check to see if the screens on the inlet of the water valve are plugged. If not its the valve its self.What component should be checked first if a washing machine does'nt fill-up with water and water supply is on?
The problem is probably the water valve or timer. But the way your question is worded (';what component should be checked first...';) would be answered by saying to check the power cord to make sure it's plugged in and getting power. If not, the timer won't work and the valve won't open. But that's such an obvious thing to check that I assume you're beyond that point, so the problem is probably the valve(s) and/or timer.
This is way too easy of a question.





THE WATER VALVE AND TIMER
Replace the timer on the knob. It's not working.
see if you have a switch that is for small / large loads
first would be power outlet make sure your even getting power to the unit, second would be putting an ohms meter on to the valve and check to see if its getting 120 volts if it is and not filling boom its your valve, if its not getting power check the water level switch for voltage, if it has voltage on the right leads it could be that,the wiring diagram is also with the unit so use that as a reference any other questions feel free to ask.
