    Broken plastic insert of shower handle
    Two shower heads in shower. Second shower head has a turn on/off handle only. Son turned it off HARD and broke plastic tube stopper inside handle unit. Now the shower is on all the time, unless the main water handle is turned off. One, how do I remove the remainer of the white plastic inner device and two, can I replace it(and how)? Thanks

    This is a delta shower handle. The other shower head has the water turn on/temp control and a second handle to turn THAT shower on and off. The broken handle belongs to the second shower head. It is broken right off so that it is on constantly. It is the inner white plastic piece that is snapped off and stuck in the handle and part of it in the wall unit. Help. Thanks.

    Delta has different handles for different models. To answer you we will need either the model number of the valve or a picture of what you're seeking. Regards, Tom
