    I have removed trip lever assembly, it is in 2 pieces. How do I put it back together?
    The drain lever was in a closed position, so I removed the 2 screws. Inside I found the lever and am able to remove it enough to grab it but it is separated from the drain lever. How do I fix that or is it broken? Do I need a new one?
