    Most likely you have some trash clogging the hot water inlet ports of the cartridge.
    The solution would be to shut the water off, open up the valve and check and clean the inlet ports. Before you reassemble, turn the hot water back on to flush out the supply. Reassemble and test. Good luck. Tom
