How do I stop my Indesit filling with water when not in use?

It's an Indesit Eco 900, a few years old, and it fills slowly with water even when switched off and not in use? I phoned a couple of repairers and they said it was a faulty valve, another said a faulty tap! Which is it and how do I fix it? Each want a ÂŁ50 call out charge for starters............
Is it easy to repair or should I shop around for a second hand machine. I'm very hard up!!

Hi dannyboy, many thanks for your help. It's really very much appreciated. I'll order up the part and give it a go.

replace the cold water valve. Not an expensive item.
As a temporary measure, turn off the cold tap when machine isnt in use.

Repair and service your own washing machine. Go to www.2ndwave.co.uk/manual.html

or simply go into google and type in "washing machine spare parts" - selecting "pages from uk".

If you are familiar with ebay, there are dozens of sellers running washing machine spare parts shops at very competitive prices.
