    No water through kitchen faucet
    Water has stopped running through my kitchen faucet. The side spray works fine.
    I wonder if the washer in the main faucet is the cause (maybe is of bad quality and damaged by the hot water). The whole faucet is only about 8months old.

    Please advise what the reason could be.

    Have you unscrewed the aerator,(see image) from the spout and checked and cleaned the screens? Let me know if it worked? If not then click on back with the brand name of your faucet. Good luck, Tom

    I'm having the same problem - just installed today - but the aerator is fine. Any other suggestions? I'm trying to get this fixed before the father in-law gets here, hehehe. It's a Price Pfister Treviso... we talked to a customer service rep at Price - they are sending a cartridge, do you think this could be the problem?

    I take it this is a single handle faucet with a goose neck spout and separate spray..

    NO water coming out faucet at all.. huh?

    Sounds like something is plugged up in there for sure. Have you got an exact model number by chance..

    Hey Mike:

    Here is a link showing the exploded parts view to the new faucet.

    http://www.pricepfister.com/website/..._ex-026-02.pdf

    You need to shut the water off to faucet, disassemble handle/body as directed at the link, then remove cartridge, clean, observe inside faucet. Then put rag over top of faucet and PULSE the hot and cold water on to clear valve of any foreign matter... then reinstall and see if that fixed it. If not, wait for new cartridge to arrive and repeat steps I just mentioned.

    You could also go get a new faucet from where you bought this one, remove cartridge from that faucet and then when replacement cartridge arrives, replace that and return the faucet... just an idea... ;)

    YOU did remove the aerator completely and clean the screens.. right?

    Good luck.. let us know how it works out for you... Mark

    After further inspection with tracking the water flow, everything is good until we hit the diverter. We detached the hoses from the diverter and found part of the plastic inside of it was cracked. There were also deposits gather inside it too. We cleaned as best we could and some water actually is flowing through it from the handle now. We are getting a new diverter and are going to install it - we'll see what happens. Unbenounced to me, we didn't let the water run for a bit to clear out all the deposits/debris, I think my error in doing that was the culprit. We'll find out for sure in a couple days! Thanks for the info.
