Solution 1:
Water Inlet Valve
The water inlet valve opens to allow water to enter the washing machine. If the water inlet valve is defective, the wash may fill slowly or not fill at all. The water inlet valve requires sufficient water pressure to function properly. First, check the water pressure to determine that it is adequate. If the water pressure is adequate, try cleaning the screens inside the water inlet valve hose connection ports. If the washer still fills slowly, replace the water inlet valve.
Solution 2:
Low Water Pressure from House Supply
The home water pressure might be too low. The water inlet valve requires at least 20 psi to function properly. Check the water pressure to the valve to determine if it is sufficient.

Why would it fill fine on rinse if the hose or valve is defective?

Hi,
Does it do this on all wash cycle types?
I don't know your machine but are you trying to do a "hot" wash cycle?
Most machines do a hot wash BUT they all do a cold rinse as part of the hot wash cycle.
Try a cold only wash cycle and check if it fills OK at the beginning of the cycle.
If it does then there may be a problem with the hot water inlet solenoid in the machine or perhaps the hot water inlet hose filter may be blocked with sludge.
