    Symmons temptrol diverter repair?
    Is is possible to adjust the new diverter once it has been installed? The shower will only come on when the diverter is moved to the middle.

    Hi Brsk201...

    No... no adjustment to these after they are installed. Tell me, did you replace all the parts of the diverter including the diverter knob (T30 below) itself? If not, I'm betting that if you replace all parts and get a new diverter knob and you'll be just fine.

    Did you replace any other parts?

    Let me know more...

    I only replaced the existing diverter with p/n TA25B and used the original diverter handle.

    Pull the T30 handle out of the TA25B abit and then rotate the T30 and see if it engages the TA25B... does the TA25B rotate from left to right or just sit still? Let me know...

    You are looking to see that the handle (T30) rotates the diverter assembly (TA25b) from left to right. If you don't get full rotation (side to side) then replace the T30 as it must be stripped If you get full rotation post back and let me know.
