    No water, 2 handle sink
    Hi,

    I've a 2 handle kitchen faucet. Recently it became erratic and you had to play with one of the handles in order to get water. Now there is no water from either handle or veggie sprayer. I've disassembled the spigot and it is free all the way to the base of the assembly.

    Is there anything that would affect both handles and block any water at all from the spigot?

    Any suggestions would be appreciated...

    Thanks

    Pump or city water? Any trash in the aerator when you checked?
    If the supplies or seats were blocked that would give you the situation you have.
    Shut the water of under the cabinet and open up both stem and washer assemblies.(see image) Keep them separate so they aren't interchanged. Turn the water back on for a few seconds. No action? Run a stiff wire down the past the seats and try again. Still no joy? Remove the supplies,check to see if they'renot clogged and see if you have pressure to the stops. I you can't get water out of the stops click on back and we'll check farther. Good luck, Tom
