Helping @HuserHelpers With A Faucet Repair From Across The Country!
What happens here
With the handle removed, use the two-pronged end of the Delta tool to unscrew the cap that holds the internal components in place. The tool fits into the four indentations on the cap. Turn the cap counter-clockwise to remove it. Once the cap is off, carefully pull out the cam and packing assembly, the ball, and then the cup from the faucet body. Place these components aside, preferably in a cleaning solution or a container to keep them organized.
Goal: Access and remove the internal cartridge components for inspection and replacement.
