Tun off the water to your washer and remove the hoses where they connect to your washer. Look inside of those connections and the water screens are inside the plastic fittings. Gently remove them and clean them on BOTH sides under running water. An old tooth brush works fine as does a few good snaps or thumps with the fingers. Hold them up to the light and make you can see light thru them. Once you finish... reinstall the screens then hook up the hoses and turn the water back on. Check your fill pressure on hot cold and warm..... You should see a noteable difference.
The filter is actually a screen that is located inside of the water valve on the back of the washing machine. Pull the machine out and where the water lines are hooked up there is a blue water valve (most are blue some are a grayish color) Remove your waterlines and look inside of this valve and you should see the screen or a lot of debris. Take a pair of needlenosed pliers and remove the screens clean them and reinstall. If no screens are visable then you may need to change out the water valve which is simple (you will see what I mean when you remove the water lines) If you need a new valve one can be purchased at an appliance parts house for around 20 usd depnding on the type of valve it is.
Good luck on your repairs hope this helped you
