    The first thing you're going to hafta do is determine if it's a washer or a cartridge you're attempting to replace. Let me instruct you on how to open it up. First shut the water off to the faucet at the angle stops located in the cabinet. Remove the handle and any cover plate that may be there. You will find a brass nut on the stem. This is the bonnet packing nut. Unscrew it and back the stem assembly out counterclockwise. Cartridge or washer? Let me know. Tom
