Thanks for this video. It saved me some money

@learnsavediy Год назад

Glad it worked for you 😊

@naturalhonor9818 2 года назад

I was hoping you'd show how to diagnose problems with the diverter too

@learnsavediy 2 года назад

To be honest, the symptoms are fairly similar for a bad diverter. Low flow or no flow even intermittent flow can mean a bad diverter. Better to start simple and assume it’s the sprayer and if not move on to the diverter.

Same- why name two issues if you can only fix one? This is the worst video

@boraxsopanic2670 10 месяцев назад

@davidheine7108 9 месяцев назад

I was excited to find this video, I have already discovered from watching other videos that it is the diverter but you have the same sink as mine and thought you would show how to fix it, thanks for nothing

I was impressed that you put the aerator back on with one hand! Certified plumber territory, lol!

@learnsavediy 2 года назад

Haha thanks! Lots of practice with this issue before as you can tell. Cheers

Im stuck with sprayer on. I'll try this thanks!

@learnsavediy Год назад

Likely the plunger under the handle is stuck (or the diverter is bad). If the plunger works and is lubricated, you may want to change the diverter

@thedylanshow1 Год назад

I need a vid on how to fix diverter because nothing is coming out

@learnsavediy 2 года назад

Definitely looking to do one soon. In the meantime, you can check out other videos to get a general idea of the process and even google your faucet's manual to see if you can see a diagram. Usually its as simple as: turn off water, remove the faucet handle, remove the nut that holds on the cartridge, replace, and put it all back together.

@stebaldrums Год назад

Great video! My problem is that the spray will not turn off. It works sporadically. Sometimes I have to tap the handle to get it to turn off. Is there a way to fix this? Thank you.

@learnsavediy Год назад

How is the plunger under the spray nozzle button? It might need to be replaced if it won’t shut off. If it’s not that, it could be the diverter is getting stuck open

@mikaeladewalt3871 Год назад

What do you do if the diverter is stuck on open?? Mine won't shut off, it's been an on and off problem for a while. But we try not to use the sprayer because it leaks a little down below when we use it.

@OmarOmar-hi3ng 3 месяца назад

Hi, i have the same sprayer as yours , it works fine however the part where u hold to spray water , gets stuck every time, any tip for that?

@learnsavediy 3 месяца назад

You could try taking the sprayer apart. There might be some gunk built up under the button causing it to get stuck. I've also had it where if I tighten the aerator too tight onto the sprayer, the button won't work well. Maybe try loosening a little but not too much that it leaks?

@logan5326 2 года назад

Instead of using the metal teeth of the wrench, use the tips of the handles (no scratches at all)! 😉

@learnsavediy 2 года назад

Great tip. Thanks for sharing, Logan. Cheers

@mykehunt2430 Год назад

Nice! Good tip

@Brian-ld9wk Год назад

What if your hose can't twist off and it is flush to the edge.

@learnsavediy Год назад

You can dunk the whole hose in vinegar.

@ginaberrie2608 2 года назад

My sprayer doesn't have a removable aerator.

@learnsavediy 2 года назад

If you can't remove the aerator, you can just pull up on the hose and dunk the nozzle in vinegar

@questallday1 3 месяца назад

What about if it’s stuck on spray???

@learnsavediy 3 месяца назад

It means the valve is stuck open. I’ve had the issue if the aerator was too tight thus keeping the handle depressed. Try loosening it a bit or check the handle assembly for something stuck open or broken.

@larrykaiser3310 Год назад

Sprayer gradually quit its function. Now neither the faucet nor the sprayer is working...si, what to do?

@learnsavediy Год назад

If neither works, you could remove the water lines from the faucet to ensure both lines are clog free and have them empty into a bucket. If the lines are good, the internals are clogged on the faucet. You can rebuild it or replace it.

@theanonymousx Год назад

Going to try this when I get home, but my sprayer is plastic and I'm pretty sure I'm gonna accidentally Hulk-Smash the sprayer, the sink and probably a couple of windows. Will report back with the chaos and/or success.

@learnsavediy Год назад

Let us know! You can also dunk the sprayer in vinegar if you don’t want to take it apart. That might work.

Whats sick a big plumbing co. Was called to my neighbors house because of this and the plumber they sent told him he needed a new faucet. He told me this as I arrived home. whats weird was a plumber was following me to my place for something he needed for his property. I told him we went over, and checked his faucet. But the big plumbing co. Charger him $900 Which he had to pay half down. And couldnt back out. Every time i see that plumbing co. Advertise i wonder how many elders the take advantage of.. he was in his ninetys .

@learnsavediy Год назад

That stuff makes me sick. I know people need to make money but some people take advantage, especially of folks who already don't have the money to spend. I hope my videos can help as many people can save themselves from potential scams and expensive bills. Cheers!

@kcstafford2784 Год назад

awww BS its rarely the aerator and this is a waste of time for the most part show us how to fix the diverter.....

@learnsavediy Год назад

Thanks for your comment. I’d beg to differ as it can be the aerator, especially if you live in area with hard water. Always start with the easiest thing which is the aerator. I will be doing another video on the a diverter replacement but many times cleaning the aerator is the first thing to do.

@kcstafford2784 Год назад

@@learnsavediy how many apartments do you manage one can see by just looking at the front of the sprayer 6 times out of ten it's the diverter These type videos are very valuable to new homeowner but most are a waste of time I'm amazed at the bad advice of some..not yours and I will say for the most part your one the best and thanks
