    Hi EARL:

    Most likely you will need to remove the handle (remove screw under cap/cover on handle or remove allen screw under handle) and then you may need to remove/replace the cartridge or the stem assembly if the stem is stripped.

    Remove the handle and see what the issue is... may just be that the handle is stripped... may be that the stem itself is stripped.

    Let us know what you think...
