Help! I need new gaskets/washers in my bathroom faucets...
Edited on Wed Mar-07-07 01:49 PM by Radio_Lady
Husband and I are dumbstruck on how to get the handles off.

We are used to Delta faucets from our old house, which have a little round plastic clip on the top of a round handle, which comes off easily and exposes the set screw to open the assembly up.

These are from an unknown manufacturer (maybe Moen??) -- we don't have any diagrams. They are very sleek and modern looking. The handles for HOT and COLD are like levers sticking out to left and right. The handles unscrew... but there's just a black hole.

Husband, an electricl engineer, threw up his hands after looking at the assembly for 15 minutes. There must be a diagram of these dad-blamed things.

Is there a plumber around? (You don't even need to bend over and let me see your butt crack!)

I'm trying to look for a fix but have limited time left before vacation. Help! Help!
