Why do I have hot water in the sink of my bathroom but the shower does not get hot?

I have a few thoughts... answers... but I need to know some answers to my questions to give you best answer... ok?

How old is faucet?

Is this a new occurrence? Or has the shower hot water temperature always been less than the sink hot water temperature?

What is the name on the shower valve? Single handle? Two - three handles?

I am hoping that this is as simple as setting the temperature limit stop that is present on almost all newer style shower valves and even many older single handle models (like symmons).

Of course, if this is a new issue that just came up or it is a 2 - 3 handle shower valve... it will not be the temperature limit stop.

Let me know as much as you can... will be in touch quickly... Mark

Mark,
I'm not sure how old it is. It's a Moen that you pull straight out and turn left for hot and right for cold, it started happening about 3 weeks ago. Thanks for your help.
