How to Replace a Moen Shower Faucet Cartridge

Показать описание
In this video, I'm replacing the faucet cartridge on a Moen single-handle Eva Posi-Temp (R) shower faucet. The replacement cartridge is part 1222 or 1222HD. From the beginning until about 9:45 is the normal faucet cartridge replacement procedure. From 9:47 until the end explains what to do if the shower handle is in the wrong position (up instead of down) when the water is shut off after you've replaced the faucet cartridge.

Thanks for this video. I especailly like that you added the part at the end because I encountered this problem and your instructions were spot on!

This was really thorough and helpful. When mine went bad didn't think I'd be able to fix it but I did. Really appreciate you!

As a tip for those that can't get these out. The rubber swells over time and can even cause the rubber to break. This is what happened to me (I think) and it made the removal process very difficult with no special tool and just the plastic piece that turns it 1/4 turn. I used WD40 and took my time, eventually, once I had enough of it out. I grabbed big adjustable pliers and grabbed the thick plastic piece instead of the post and started turning it back and forth until it slowly started to give.

Excellent video! Most I’ve found only show the cartridge replacement procedure which I found to be a lot easier than the posi handle installation and adjustment. I found after installing the HD cartridge that the lever is actually so easy to move that it will slip down to full hot (9 o’clock) from approximately midpoint between 10 & 11 o’clock. Have you had this happen? The plastic cartridge gets harder to turn over time I wonder if that will happen to the HD brass cartridge.

What happens if the cartridge breaks inside as you are pulling it out?

Would it be the same process to replace the cartridge for the diversion valve above the faucet?

Wait, so the old cartridge needed to be quarter turned to come out, but the new one didn't? Is that because you got the HD version?
