Is it flushing the detergent dispenser properly? Best would be to pull off the top and check where that nozzle goes to? | ||

 Filling on a frontloader is normally, primarily, through the dispenser drawer, with a diverter mechanism or multiple solenoids involved to direct the flow through the various cups at the proper time (detergent, bleach, softener). The little nozzle is not likely the main flow route. You didn't cite the model number of the machine for parts diagrams look-up to see what all is involved. | ||

Manualslib has several service manuals. The one I pulled has 2 valves and a 4 way diverter. The hose to the front goes off of a connection to the drawer. Don't think much water should come from there. But that was the TOL model with some sort of bulk dispenser system. So telling us a model number would help. | ||

If you take the top off you should see all the hoses and valves.
Take a picture so you remember where everything was. Then take the pieces out and clean. You might just need to soak plastic pieces in vinegar to get rid of lime build up. There might be a blockage in one of the solenoids from the previous persons bad plumbing. | ||

Model Number PFWS4600L0WW I'll probably tear into it here soon and see what I find. The unit sat for a long time which is probably why its not filling correctly. I cleaned a LOT of dried crud out of the tub seal area and had to run three cleaning cycles to clear out the musty smell. | ||

Steam outlet Supposedly yours has a steam generator. The pipe appears to be related to that. How did you run cleaning cycles of it doesn't fill? Here a link to your service manual: CLICK HERE TO GO TO henene4's LINK | ||
