THANK YOU!! I DID IT!! 😄 I absolutely could not have done this without you!! I watched the video throughout the procedure and everything worked. The only difference is that the part is now $40. Ha!! I did not have to call a plumber, so I am happy!! I read the part was good for 5 years, so don't know about the lifetime warranty. But it's fixed, and I didn't have to wait on something to be delivered.
That’s awesome my friend. I’m glad I could help. They would still hot or the warranty. No questions asked. I was in the same boat, I didn’t want to wait for it in the mail. But you can call now and get one for the future. Thanks again for the support.
Yes, thank you! 5 minute job
Good deal, glad to help. Thanks for the feedback.
You made it clear enough for this 75 YO grandmother to change the cartridge in under 15 minutes. The hardest part was getting down and up to get to the water shut off valves. Thank you!!
I’m extremely happy that I could help. Always keep on doing things and keep your mind going. I miss my grandparents and I feel honored that the video could help you. God bless
I usually just turn off the main line. That way I don’t have to finagle my way under the sink.
@golluj sounds good to me brother.
Single clearest instructional video I’ve ever watched.
@@sabrastein2614 I truly appreciate the feedback my friend.
Excellent video. On my install the orange gasket kept falling off the cartridge so I put some coconut oil on it to hold it while I installed it. This desugn is a huge step backward for delta their old faucets were easy to rebuild and the kits cost $5 while this cartridge cost me $40! Thanks for the video!
Glad to help and thanks for the tip. You could have had delta replace it under warranty. I had to do mine sooner than later and didn’t want to wait for the replacement. I find everything was made better in the past than now a days.
This is a wonderfully made tutorial. It helped my amazing son fix our kitchen sink without having to spend money on a plumber.
I’m glad to have helped. Thanks for the awesome feedback. Let me know if you have any further questions.
Thank you for this video. We had the problem of the delta single handle kitchen faucet just leaking and leaking and very difficult to turn it off. Purchased the part online anf followed your video and all is well with the kitchen faucet. Thank you again.
@@shenaycrawford8701 I’m so glad it worked out for you guys. Enjoy that leak free water faucet. You could have called delta and had them send you a free cartridge as well. Thanks for the feedback.
Great job!! I just saved $200 by not having my plumber come out. Plus I had a ball doing it myself! Great teacher!!👍👍
That’s awesome my friend. I’m glad it worked out for you and you saved that hard earned money. That’s my goal in my video to help people save money. Thanks for the feedback.
MrV2u now if you would post a video on how to replace a basic toilet I would be all set. Thank you again for your great teaching! You're a natural!! Plus I can tell you like lions. I'm a Leo ♌️
@@josborn9653 that’s not a bad job brother. I’ll keep the video suggestion in mind. What’s wrong with your toilet? Sometimes you can fix certain things rather than completely swap it out. Unless you want a new style or something different.
@@MrV2u It’s 53 years old and does work ok. But the sub floor around the base is weathered and has dry rot. So I thought I would just replace the toilet with a new one nothing fancy and when I try putting down some new particle board sub floor. So I got my work cut out for me if I decide to take that project on.
@@josborn9653 your toilet did its job for sure. Make sure your when you replace the particle boards everything else is in good order. Let me know how you make out my friend or if you have any questions. I have good plumbers in the family if I don’t have the answers.
Thanks, completely relieved my anxiety over attempting to replace the cartridge. Took 10-15 max minutes after watching the video. Great job & thank you.
Thanks so much for the feedback I’m glad I could help. Have a great spring my friend.
thank you. I struggled to get the cartridge to unscrew as it was stuck from years of service. Very hard water where I live. Your key about using an adjustable wrench and tapping with a hammer got it free. Sir - Good job!!! Thanks much.
You got it my friend. A lil love with the hammer never fails. Thanks for the feedback my friend and glad it worked out for you.
Excellent step by step directions with excellent "be careful" advice. THANK YOU MrV2u!
Glad to have helped Jerry. Thanks for the awesome feedback.
Best video I've seen for replacing a Delta cartridge and I've seen plenty! Thank you.
You got it my friend. Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you for the video! I liked that it was detailed, up close where I could actually see what you were talking about, was straight to the point and that you did not bore us with the cleaning process. Thank you for the help.
Thanks for the awesome feedback my friend. Glad to help when I can.
Wow - this is the exact video I needed. Replaced the cartridge in 10 minutes for $0 in labor. Thanks!
Sounds like a great price to me lol. Glad to have helped out brother.
Very helpful. quick and without a lot of verbal BS. Thanks
My pleasure Chris, glad to help when possible without all the fuss.
Excellent video, straight to the point, I got back up and running in under ten minutes, thanks!
Your very welcome brother. Thanks for the feedback, glad I could help.
Got this done in under 10 minutes. Thanks for posting this video for a Delta single handle faucet.
You got it my friend. My pleasure to help people save money and learn to do things on their own. Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you so much! My husband is buying the part right now. Now I can have water in my kitchen again!!
Awesome, let me know how you guys make out or if you have any further questions. Thanks for the feedback.
For the Ashton model like this one, call Delta, lifetime warranty. Stopper sink so you don't lose parts. The little orange slider on the cartridge adjusts hot water flow/anti scald. I want mine wide open for all the hot water I can get via handle adjustment. I bet many blame the water heater, when that valve is the culprit. BTW - that's why Delta went from the ball to the cartridge!
Good info brother thanks for the feedback. Perfect name too lol.
We did it !! And without the help of a plumber who wanted to charge us $400. Took us about 20 minutes, mostly because of calcium buildup around the threads. But it's done and it works beautifully. Thank you for the excellent video.
This comment made me smile, this is the reason I make these videos. Helping people save money. I’m so happy you accomplished the easy swap and saved your hard earned money. Take care Mrs Carol.
Thank you so much! I did it and the hardest part was finding the hot water shut off valve hidden behind the garbage disposal, lol! I'm going to call delta for my free warranty replacement cartridge, this faucet is only 2 years old, if that. Thanks again!😄
Glad to hear. Definitely call them, they don’t question anything and will have one shipped out in no time. Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you for showing the step of putting back on the handle. That little detail cost me a lot of time!
Thanks for the feedback, I try to show as much as possible to make it easier for first timers. Let me know if you ever have any questions, I’m always around for advice.
Clear and to the point. Used Delta part and walk/talk thru entire process. Right on.
Glad to have helped brother. I try my best to do so. Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you, MrV2u! This gave my sweet husband the gumption to do this, even with a slightly leaky hot-water shut off. It didn't take much longer than the length of the video. You're a good guy!
I truly appreciate the feedback. I try to be thorough and to the point. Glad it worked out for you my friend.
thanks for explaining this! Once I was able to get the the trim cap off everything else went smoothly and just like you showed. Thanks for saving me the expense of a plumber!!
Your very welcome Linda, and I really appreciate the feedback. Save that hard earned money for something fun.
Excellent video! Save me money, because I didn’t have to replace my faucet. Thank you!
Great to hear my brother, this is why I make my videos. Trying to help people save that hard earned money. Thanks for the feedback brother.
Thanks a bunch, huge help! I know these are fairly simple but I wasn’t sure about what part was needed. This is easy enough that I can do this as long as I have the part but fortunately I have a guy here that’s good at this kind of thing and I’m just his researcher.😉
Always good to do your research. He’s lucky to have a great researcher. Let me know how you guys make out and thanks for the feedback.
Thank you! I managed to replace cartridge without a plumbing catastrophe.
Always a great thing when it all comes together. Thanks for the feedback my friend.
Just followed your video to replace the cartridge in delta 9192-dst. Thanks again.
Glad to have helped brother. Thanks for the feedback.
Sir this was absolutely fantastic! Clear and precise. You rock! Thank you!
Thanks my friend. Thanks for the feedback. I try to be fast and to the point showing all that’s needed.
Thank you! I was able to successfully do it with your guidance. You saved me time and cash. God bless.
That’s awesome my friend. Glad to have helped out. God bless you too, we need Him now more than ever.
Thank you Papi! I'm a sissy and this video helped me get my faucet fixed! Love ya!
Glad to help. Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you for the video used it today to fix my kitchen faucet. To the point and helpful. Great job!
Glad I could help Mike. Thanks for the feedback my friend.
Greese the threads even on a new one saves headaches when taking apart later.
Great idea brother. Off camera I did add a dab of never seize afterwards.
Thank you very much for your excellent well-instructed video , good job .
Your very welcome my friend. Thanks for the feedback.
I priced one of these cartridges and was glad I did not have to buy a new one because the cartridge would have cost 50% of the cost of the Delta faucet I have had for 5 years now. All I had to do was to grease the ball and the seats it rides in with special Plumber's Grease which is available at Lowe's and Home Depot and most hardware stores. Just do not disassemble the cartridge anymore than necessary in order to get to the ball ( which attaches to the handle). More than likely the actual valve is in great shape still. The ball and seats just need to be wiped clean with a paper towel and the special grease applied. I just bought Silicone Plumber's Grease today and it is supposed to be waterproof, which, I hope, means longer lasting.
Great info brother. You could always call delta and have them send you a new one free of charge under their lifetime warranty.
Great video also this part RP50587 is Backed by Delta Faucet's Lifetime Limited Warranty. Keep your HD receipt
I never thought of saving the receipt. I know that their life time warranty is awesome. I didn’t want to wait for the part so I just bought it brother. But next time I will definitely give them a call first. Thanks for the tip my friend.
@@MrV2u Anytime my friend. Took advantage of this for my daughter. Many warranties are out there for the asking. Stay well. Vino.
At what point do you grease it? And how? That’s what I came here for. Excellent video! Tell your daughter great job videoing!
Much appreciated, at 8:02 I show you where to put grease. If you do this and it still doesn’t work contact Delta and have them send you out a replacement for free. Let me know how you make out. Good luck Laura.
Thanks you very much just completed the job by your perfect instructions 👍
Glad to hear my friend. Thanks for the feedback!
Easy Peezy, my faucet, no leaky. Thank you.
@@maainwv lol great news. Glad to help and thanks for the feedback.
Great video. Simple and explains everything I needed to know.
You got it brother. Glad to have helped.
Incredibly helpful. I can do this! Thank you
Yes you can Debbie. If you run into anything let me know. Good luck and knock it out.
Thanks. Good, clear video. Enjoyed the narration and the tattoos.
You got it my friend. Glad the video could help you. Thanks for the feedback.
Great Video and demonstration. Thanks 😊

Glad to help brother. Thanks for the feedback.
DUDE! Great video and camera work. Tomorrow morning, I will replace it and let you know. Thank you.
You got it brother. It’s not a bad job to do. Thanks for the feedback my friend.
@@MrV2u I was able to install the new valve ! Yippee. Due to calcium build-up. loosening the threads took quite a long time. Now it works beautifully. THANK YOU.
@@marcmilnes955 that's awesome brother. I've had that calcium build up issue as well. The best thing I found to work is just plain vinegar. Wrap a wrap around it and soak it with vinegar. Let it sit a couple hours and you are good to go. Thanks for the feed back brother. I love to hear that my videos helped people out.
Thank you so much! You did a great job and thanks for sharing with us. This was awesome and so was the photography
Thanks so much, glad to have helped. Thanks for the feedback my friend.
Perfect. Just what I needed before heading to Home Depot.
You got it brother. Saved me from another faucet purchase. Let me know how you make out.
@@MrV2u Piece of cake.
Glad to hear brother.
Thank you! Best how to video I have seen. You two are quite a duo. Great camera work and great instructions. Well done and thanks again!
Thanks, trying to teach my daughter how to be a camera person. I’m glad to hear that I’ve helped you out. Means a lot to know I helped when I could.
Thank you! Your instructions worked perfectly.
@@phillipellis2119 good to hear and glad to help. Thanks for the feedback my friend.
I would add that once you clean the inner threads at the bottom of the brass coloured locking tube that holds the cartridge in place with a stiff toothbrush and vinegar, then lube those inner threads with food grade silicone grease if you have, or just as good is a good coating with olive oil. And when you tighten that locking tube with a wrench, very little torque is needed. Just lightly snug is all you need.
Very good info brother. Thanks for the tip.
Great job. Just what I wanted to know especially about white vinegar.
Glad to help Nate. Hope all went well.
If you call Delta they will replace the cartridge for NOTHING.
Your correct brother. I needed it right away and didn’t want to wait for it in the mail.
That’s what I did
Ok I’m going to try this on my drippy faucet. Great video ty!
Let me know how you make out or if you have any further questions. Good luck you got this!
I recommend soaking the parts of the disassembled cartridge in vinegar with a pinch of baking soda added. This will remove deposits on the parts of the cartridge that may have deposits causing it to grind as well. Rinse all parts thoroughly and re-grease and assemble.
Good info brother. Mine was beyond that point already but great info. Thanks
I use Lemi - shine for hard water deposits and let the parts soak with hot water. Works well.
@@hoosierdaddy8002 something to try in the future. Thanks brother
Thank you this helped tremendously!
I’m glad to have helped you my friend.
Good video, but the one thing I would add is that instead of getting the part from home depot, just call Delta. Their items are guaranteed for life. I called them, told them the faucet was leaking, they asked for the model number, etc... and sent me a new on the in the mail for free. Arrived 3 days after I called. They also sent me a new head because it wasn't functioning as well as it should either. No receipts needed... just asked when I purchased it and the model number. I didn't know my model number as I got my faucet in 2012, so Just just google and found it on the internet, wrote it down, then called them. Viola! Thanks for the tutorial though!
Your correct my friend, but I was in a rush to get it done. Their lifetime warranty is outstanding. No questions asked what so ever. Glad I could help you my brother. Thanks for the feedback as well.
Thank you for this! I got to the copper ring and was like : now what 🤷♀️
Lol I’m glad you got it done my friend.
@@MrV2u I have to get the adjustable pliers .
@@MrV2u how big does the adjustable pliers have to be? 1 &. 1/2 inch?
Thank you so much for taking your time to make this video
Your very welcome my friend. Thanks for the feedback.
Something went right, thanks for your video.
Your very welcome Patricia. Thanks for the feedback.
Appreciate the video. Also if you buy any delta faucets they will replace what you need for free
You got it my friend thanks for the feedback and it was more of a honey do list, I didn’t want to wait for a replacement in the mail.
If your new or renovated house came with Delta faucets, they will only warranty them to the original owner. We bought our house 1 year old from the original owners, and Delta won't talk to us.
That’s crazy, sorry to hear that brother.
Thank YOu, VERY helpful
You got it my friend. Thanks for the feedback.
I took old Cartridge Home Depot Beacon Hill Calgary Canada and they replaced with New FREE.
Good information brother. I know you could always call delta for free replacements. I’ve never tried bribing it back to Home Depot directly. Thanks for the tip.
Delta faucets come with a lifetime warranty - if you can wait for a week they'll send you the part for free!
Yes sir. I just had to do the job and couldn’t wait for a new one to arrive. But I’ve been telling everyone on here the exact same thing as you. Thanks for the info otherwise my friend.
Great video! Fantastic detail.
Thanks for the feedback brother. I try to be thorough and to the point.
No need to buy the Delta part. I just called Delta, told them the problem and faucet model #, and they are sending the valve to me for free.
Apparently they really do provide a lifetime warranty with no games. No need to show original receipt etc. Very easy!
Your correct brother. I didn’t want to wait for it to come in the mail, they do have excellent customer service. They honor their warranty’s with no questions asked. Great company.
well done! Clear, and really a replacement valve work.
I’m glad I could help you brother. Thanks for the feedback.
Awesome! Thank you, easy to understand and follow along with.
My pleasure to help, thanks for the feedback.
Very GOOD UNDERSTANDABLE EXACT VIDEO !! THANKS
Thanks for the feedback my friend and I’m glad I could help you out.
As a former New Yawker, I have this to say:
Thank Gawd that's the same fucking faucet I have. I've been looking for the right video on how to fix this thing for 2 hours. I also couldn't get that damn cartridge out to save my life, so thank you for showing me how to do that. You're a fucking life (and faucet) saver. THANK YOU!!! (unironically, I mean it)
Lmao I’m glad to help my brother. Where did you flee too? I’m looking to escape as well. If yo I ever have any questions I’m always around for advice my brother.
Thats Harvey Keitel......U the Man
Lmao thanks brother. I’ve never been told that one before.
Back in the day Delta kitchen faucets where cheap to fix the kit was two springs and rubber seats for a few dollars. Now like every thing else corporate greed wants to empty your wallet
You find the greed in so many places now brother. I find it best to do your own work and save your hard earned money.
Thank You!! Great instructive video
Thanks for the feedback my friend. Glad to help when possible.
Wonderful instructions. Thanks so much
My pleasure Laura. Hope it worked out well for you.
What is the small sliding orange tab do please?
It limits the hot water so you don’t burn yourself. It’s an anti scalding device.
Excellent, nicely done, sir.
Thanks for the support David. Truly appreciated!
Helped me get mine today, thanks!
Awesome brother glad to have helped.
Delta warranties their products for life. They will send replacement parts to you at no charge. If you don’t know the model number of your faucets all you have do is send customer service a photo on you mobile device they will be able to identify it. I’ve done it numerous times. This process also works for Moen faucets.
Your very right brother and I’ve done the same. I just needed to get it done as soon as possible and didn’t want to wait for it in the mail.
@@MrV2u I hear that and have done the same.
I do it on my my faucets, doorknobs, and anything else that has a warranty.
@@chipwells1352 same here brother.
Will they reimburse if you already bought it ?
Thanks for the help! Worked out perfect.
I’m glad to hear that Greg. Thanks for the feedback.
clear, easy to follow. Thanks
Your very welcome David.
Thanks so much great video so helpful!
Glad to help, my friend.
Thank you!
@@xXxjayceexXx you got it my friend. Thanks for the feedback
Very good job,thank you sir👍
You got it my friend. Glad it helped you out.
Be aware that this part has a Lifetime Warranty. If you send Delta a copy of your faucet sales slip and Owner’s Manual, they will send you the replacement part. My son just replaced mine with the part Delta sent to me. $0.00 😃
You are correct sir. I just needed to replace it sooner than later. Thanks for the info.
Good Job! Thanks for sharing.
You got it brother. Thanks for the feedback.
the bonnet nut and the cartridge can freeze up together. since the valve cartridge is plugged in at its bottom in two places, if the bonnet nut is forced, and the cartridge plugs break, you will be buying a new faucet. this is more of a pain than you would think, with many of these videos glossing over this problem completely. it is not mentioned that maybe the guy had to dismantle the faucet and soak it overnight in a container, to try to loosen the cartridge from the nut before attempting loosening the nut from the threads. even then no guarantee.
What you see in my video is exactly live. I don’t pre do anything to make it easier, and if it broke you would see it on the video. It is definitely possible for it to seize up and like you said soaking it overnight would help. Pb blaster, WD40 and or vinegar will dissolve the calcium/lime buildup and help when trying to bust the bonnet loose.
And Delta does warranty their product 100 percent. So if needed contact them and tell them your situation and they will replace parts as needed free of charge.
Ive tried everything to remove the bonnet nut but failed. Im switching to another brand for this very reason. the bonnet nut design seems prone to failure in my opinion.
@mhmdyssen get some heat on there if you can. Did you try the vinegar and pb blaster?
The chrome part in mine is not sitting flush and I can't tighten it now. May have to buy another faucet tomorrow
Take a brass brush and clean the threads out with some vinegar. You probably have some grit on there or maybe you cross threaded it.
What is the orange switch for? Adjusting temp of mixed water, maybe?
Spot on brother. Yup be way is full hot and cold the other way would be not as hot.
Excellent video, thx
Glad to help my friend. Thanks for the feedback.
Oh! Bada Bing babeeeeeeeeeee!! Dats how you do it!
Lol damn right my brother. Glad to help!
Thanx!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You were a great help.
Im glad to help my friend, Thanks for the feedback.
Called Delta and they sent a new cartridge since they have a lifetime warranty as long as you are the first owner.
Absolutely brother, good company for sure.
Thank you sir.
You’re very welcome my friend.
Have you ever had a handle that would not come off the cartridge even after completely removing the set screw? Im having that issue and i need to get to the cartridge as its leaking a bit.
Use the small straw that comes with the pb blaster or wd40 and spray some under the handle. Spray some into the set screw hole too. There is room, gently rock the handle back and forth. You’ll be able to work it out.
Thanks...great video.
You got it brother. Glad to have helped.
What size is the retaining nut? I think I overtightened it last time. my crescent wrench and monkey wrench are not doing it.
I changed the cartridge as you showed but now my handle is loose
Loosen up the set screw and slide the handle down further perhaps. Make sure you tighten the set screw up tight. Let me know if that helps.
Great video
Thanks my friend.
In most cases Delta will provide you with a free replacement part. If you have have to buy it, please buy the original Delta part.
Yes sir, I didn’t want to wait for delta to send me one. The part I got was an original Delta part.
Why you not mention what the little orange switch is for???
The orange switch allows you to choose between "Cold & Hot" or "Cold & Warm". Some people don't want to have very hot water, so this switch limits the movement of the handle, not allowing it to move all the way into the Hot position. Hope this helps.
Thanks for this video!! It appears to provide all I need as a rank amateur to fix my leaking faucet. I'm about to tackle the cartridge repairs. In preparation I went searching for "Silicone grease". Harbor Freight? Don't have it. A local auto parts store seemed baffled by my request. However an employee, who claimed to be a "handyman", suggested "Synthetic Caliper Grease" and said that would "absolutely" do the job. When I read the package I see no mention of silicone as an ingredient. Also this comment on the package "waterproof formulation prevents against corrosion". QUESTION: Will the Caliper Grease suffice?
I wouldn’t use caliper grease on something that is going to be in contact with your water. Go to Home Depot or Lowe’s and go to the section where they have the sink repair parts and it will be there. If not ask for it. Let me know how you make out or if you have any other questions brother. Good luck

@@MrV2u THANKS SO MUCH! I will do that today and reply.
Before you go hit the area around the ring with some vinegar or wrap a rag around it and soak it in vinegar to make the job easier to take off the beauty ring.
@@MrV2u I have not yet taken anything apart. My experience as a handyman (generally poor) over MANY years has taught me to go slow. So I'm doing my research, gathering tools and supplies to deal with the "what if's" BEFORE I jump in. So I'll have it all when I start the job. I HATE having to make several trips to HD during the job. And in the case of my kitchen faucet, once I start the job I need to know I can finish it. I'm hoping that since I have very good City water that I'll have no issue with too much corrosion. If I do, I have what I need to deal with that or I can just use the brand new cartridge that Delta has sent me and toss the old one. Make sense to you Mr Vu?
This was helpful!!
Glad to help, have a great Christmas.
I am having problem trying to remove the screw with an Allen wrench in the handle. The screw are way too tight. I have tried using WD40 to lime away. Yet it’s still not coming off…. Any suggestions will be helpful. Thanks
You can try and get some heat on it with a small torch. If not then your going to need to drill it out with a small bit and then try to get an extractor on it. I would definitely reach out to Delta and explain the situation and they may just send you a new unit under warranty. They have a great lifetime warranty. Let me know how you make out. I know it’s not the greatest news.
