It sounds like one of the automatic water fill valves in the machine is leaking water when washer is off and the valves are closed. There are two manual water supply valves at the wall behind the washer, one for hot water and one for cold. Close the manual hot water supply valve and allow the washer to sit and see if it fills with water. If it does fill, then the cold water automatic fill valve is leaking. If not, then open the hot water manual supply valve and close the cold water manual supply valve. Allow the washer to sit again and see if it fills. If it does then the hot water automatic fill valve is leaking. Replace the leaking valve in your washer. You can order the new valve online using washer brand and model number on a appliance parts web store, or maybe even find it at a local appliance parts store.

The door interlock may be faulty. Try closing the door firmly or hit the door handle when the door is closed.

Jamesbestor,
The water fill selenoid had junk in it holding the valve open or the seat in the valve is damaged.
Turn off the power and water, remove two screws on the back of the machine and remove the lid.
On the back left top corner are the water fill selenoids. Remove these and disassemble by undoing the 6 or 8 screws ( depending upon model ) holding the unit together. Clean and reassemble, it should take care of the problem. If not, replace the selenoid.

Sounds like one of your inlet automatic water valves is leaking water into the washer when the washer is off and the valves are closed. Try closing the manual water supply valves at the wall behind your washer. Close the hot water manual supply valve first and allow the washer to sit and see if it fills up with water, if it fills with water then you cold water automatic valve is leaking. If not, then open the manual hot water valve and close the manual cold water valve. If it fills with water then your automatic hot water valve is leaking. Once you determine which valve is leaking in the machine, replace it. You should be able to find the part online using your washer brand and model number.
Yep Bad inlet valve :)
