Despite checking that water can run through the inlet pipe (into a bucket) the water does not run into the machine. I think I can hear the pump trying get the water in.
Check the strainer attached to the machine inlet. May be it is clogged. Try loading water 10 liters to the front chamber manually and run the m/c. If any air locking in the water pump this will ease out.

i had a GOOD look online
and i advise you go too the maker
i think error codes are usually within 1 year of making up to 5
its prob just a blocked filter!!!
after 5 years it can be a bad motor brushes or a bad pump
im sorry i can find any schematics or service manual
despite the fact you actually posted the maker and model
my advice is too check the waist and pipes pump etc
and clean outlet waist pipes are clear
and water inlet if you still have issues
then let use know what part of the cycle it stops
and exactly what happens ???
Turn the water on very gently, having put a bucket underneath the pipe. If water then flows, there is an obstruction in the pipe. If there is no water, then maybe the pipe has been disconnected or the valve has stuck.
If you have a LG washer, the IE error indicates an inlet error. This can be caused by low water pressure, the water shut-off valves being in the closed position, clogged filters (either at the shut-off valves or the filters on the washer), an anti-flood inlet hose failure or a problem with the washer's inlet valve. First, make sure that the shut-off valves are open. Next, shut off those valves and disconnect the fill hoses. Check and clean the filters on each side. Try new hoses. (Many anti-flood hoses will restrict the flow when they fail. A way to check this can be to connect the hoses to the shut-off valves and put the other end into a bucket. Open the shut-off valves and check the amount of water flowing into the bucket. Do this for the hot and cold side separately.) Make sure that the inlet hoses are not kinked.
Make sure that the end of the outlet hose isn't lower than the washer's fill level. This can lead to the water flowing out of the washer as it fills.
If none of these solutions work, then the inlet valve has failed in the closed position or there is a problem with the sensor that monitors the amount of water in the tub within a certain amount of time. Try replacing the inlet valve. (If you add a comment with the washer model number, I may be able to get the part number for you.) Of course if the washer is under warranty, contact the company.
For a Samsung washer, this could be a Suds error. That suggests too much detergent was used, a non-HE detergent was used, or the filter before the drain pump is clogged. Try running the washer without any detergent to rinse the excess detergent out. If the error recurs, get a bucket ready to catch the water from the tub and pump. Next you will need to get into the washer and separate the drain hose from the pump and clean out the "coin catcher" filter. Make sure that there are no foreign objects in the pump. Then reconnect the hose and try running the machine. (If you add a comment with the model, I may be able to tell you how to access the pump.) Other causes for the IE error are a bad door seal or the outlet hose being too low in the overflow pipe. Also check that the washer is level and that the detergent drawer is fully closed.
Check that you have sufficient water pressure from the tap, remove the water pipe to the tap, hold a bucket under the tap and check the water pressure.
At the inlet where the machine meets the water supply pipe may be a small filter siev. Check and clean and try again.
Check the water shut off valves behind your washer. Make sure they are full open (turn counter-clockwise).
Turn the shut off valve off (full clockwise). Disconnect the hose and try running it into a bucket from the valve to make sure you have good water flow.
Check the hose from the shut off valve and make sure it's not kinked stopping water flow.
Turn shut off valve off completely...disconnect hose and look at the end that attaches to the washer. Is the metal screen clogged? Look at the water inlet on the washer where hose attaches and make sure there are no obstructions.
Before breaking into your machine, shut off your water inlet valve(s) to the machine. Remove your water inlet hoses from the machine and aim them into the wash tub or a bucket. Check water flow through hoses. Debris in water system can clog up the screens on your water hoses.
there is a floater switch on the machine over the bucket (and sometimes in it). the floater tells the machine that the bucket is full. if the floater is stuck, the machine will assume that the bucket is not yet full, and will continue to run. check that floater switch with the bucket out. you may need to press in the bucket switch so the machine thinks the bucket is in. then lift the floater and see if it stops running. if not, the switch is bad.
your outlet hose put it down close to the floor into a bucket if water comes out then your pump may have blown if not it will be blocked up u may find if u take the outlet hose of water may come out which means your pipe is blocked
