I have a 3 month old single spout Kitchen Faucet from IKEA. Suddenly today no water was coming through the spout. Both Hot and Cold water shut-off valves were open. How can I find out if the faucet got faulty or something else is wrong?

Carlcarv - Shut the water off at the shutoff valves under the sink , Take the faucet apart,from the handle first, REMEMBER hou you take it apart so you can put it back togreather again . To remove the handle ,on the back side there should be a set screw . Loosen this screw a little bit and lift off now remove large nut holding the rest of the parts inside the faucet, then start removeing parts slowing and seting them aside ( LAY THEM THE WAY THEY COME OUT ). HOLD a rag over the top of the faucet hole and have someone to turn on the cold water at the shutoff valve under sink slowly , see if you have water comeing out the faucet, turn off cold and turn on hot water side SLOWLY and check this side alsoi:: if you have water then the faucet is bad ;;; remove complete faucet after putting back togreather , return to store you got it and have them to give you a new one ,HAVE YOUR SALES SLIP WITH YOU O the receit from your check, credit card , dbet card Good luck and GOD BLERSS;;; F.B.E.

Before you do anything - remove your aerator from the tip of your kitchen faucet and clean it. If still no water, proceed as explained above.
