Kitchen sink faucet trickles, while Sprayer works

I used my sink's sprayer and now my kitchen sink water no longer flows. The water trickle as if no pressure. Before I call someone to fix it, I wanted to know if this is something that I can do myself? Or should I have it replaced?

Sure you can do it your self if you give us the brand and the model number of your faucet it may be a bad diverter depends on your faucet, Thanks.

From what I can tell, it's a Glacier Bay. Not sure what the model number is.

Glacier Bay is carried by Home Depot.
Most Glacier Bay faucets are manufactured by Globe Union Industrial Faucet Company of Canada , China, and elsewhere. Their brands, besides Pegasus and Glacier Bay, include Danze and Gerber.

Dud you remove the aerator,(see image) and then turn on the water. If you had water coming outta the spout then clean the aerator screens. If you still have a problem get back to us. Good luck, tom

Turn the wate off and romove the stems and washers,(or cartridges) and check and clean the seats or inlet ports. Before you reassemble turn the water back on to flush out the supplies and valve body. You should have a strong stream when you do this. n If not click on back and tell me. good luck, Tom Good luck, Tom
