If the water is getting in during other parts of the cycle, would indicate water valve is ok. If equipped , try selecting other cycle modes.. Hot vs Cold , Delicate vs Normal , try to make sure you are getting both Hot and Cold water in. If only one or the other temperature gets in , it is most likely the water valve. The other suspect if both temperatures work, would be the timer, not providing the electronic connections properly. This just general info without knowing your model Make / Model etc.. Good Luck.
