    This was the best video I found regarding replacing a Moen faucet cartridge. Annoyingly, it was the last one that I looked at so it took me all afternoon to replace the two cartridges. This video had one element the other's didn't have--that you have to turn the little white thing on the cartridge to align it with the faucet handle. Once I knew that, I had the job done. Thank you for these instructions.

    We used this excellent video yesterday to install this cartridge in our bathroom faucet, thanks. It took longer to remove the cartridge than I thought but eventually we got it out using this method with the screwdriver instead of pulling it out with pliers as we first saw on another video. The cartridge broke when we took it out and had to use need pliers to get the remaining old cartridge out. But all worked out in the end run.

    Great video!!! But, no matter how hard I tried, I could not get my screwdriver under the lip of the cartridge to pry it out.
    Ended up searching for a "How to remove stuck Moen sink cartridges" video. Used that video's trick of grabbing the stalk of the cartridge vertically with Vicegrips and using a large screwdriver with the Vicegrips to lever the cartridge up and out. Worked like a champ. After 23 years, that cartridge was stuck, stuck, stuck.
    Moen did send replacement cartridges for free, but I got the impression that newer fixtures no longer have the lifetime warranty

  • @robertwoodpa6463
    @robertwoodpa6463 4 года назад +5

    Thank you! I was killing myself trying to get the cartridge out. The trick is to get it started separating it from the brass cylinder it sits and and then get it out with the vice grips. Don't worry about mangling the cartridge as you will be replacing it.

      @@Hindsight101 In the end your video was really helpful to me in removing the handle and selecting the correct cartridge from Lowe's. However, I guess Moen puts the same cartridge in multiple styles of bodies because at the point you used the water-pump pliers at 2:20 I found my cartridge was deeply recessed and required tool #14272 to remove it. I 3D printed a tool from Thingiverse (www.thingiverse.com/thing:1759028 ) and removed the internal retaining nut. Thanks!

    I can’t seem to get my new cartridge pushed down enough to get the nut back on. I used silicone grease too. It just keeps popping back up. Thoughts?

      You can only put the cartridge in a certain way. Did you line up the little notch?

    • @tubeguyx
      @tubeguyx 3 года назад

      Yes. Your video was great at pointing that out. The new cartridge just won’t push down. It is 100% the right part too. Identical to the defective one.

      No obstruction. Nothing fell in as I took the old one out. Immediately tried to insert the new one.

      Do you have a shop vac, towel, or turkey baster to such the water out. That might help

    I had low water pressure after replacing the cartridge and found out the aerator/filter on the spout was clogged up with debris and once I cleared that out the pressure was normal.

      It was a Peerless Faucet and when I contacted them they sent a similar replacement for $0!
      I also was going to hire a plumber as they came out and quoted the job for 3 faucets. The 1 mentioned above and 2 other bathroom ones. The quote was over $700 and maybe worse when all said and done.
      So I contacted Moen and they sent me 6 new cartridges for $0 and I replaced them myself. No more leaking.

    Thanks! Clearer than others. The screwdriver bit helps when the 1224 is stuck hard! Just be careful of the lip as its soft brass. Otherwise I used the lever method too. Shown here:

    Those under sink water shut off valves ALWAYS seem to be an additional point of failure. For most smaller single family homes, especially if you have Moen faucets which seem to be always failing, I think you’d be miles ahead if you just had an easily accessible main water shut off valve. Do away with the the time, trouble and expense of having to replace those corroded shut off valves every time you need to replace a faucet core. Those shut off valves are not dependable and are just a nuisance to deal with - they provide no convenience if every time you need to actually use them, they also fail❗️👈 🤬
