How to replace a Modella Rococo bathroom tap cartridge?

wmrajput

Hi, I was able to use the L key to take the grub screw behind the handle out after a bit of struggle. But even after that the handle did not come off. I thought once the grub screw is out, the handle should just slide out.

Can you please help. Also, what would be the right replacement cartridge for this.

Thank you.

Regards,

Waqas.

Hello @wmrajput 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's marvellous to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your basin tapware.

It sometimes happens that the handle will seize or get stuck on the spindle post of the cartridge, despite the grub screw being totally removed. I suggest moving the handle left to right, forwards and backwards with your efforts focused on removing it upwards.

Another possible reason is that there might be calcium deposits on the handle that has fused the handle to the cartridge post. I still suggest doing the same action, it may take some time, but eventually the handle will work itself loose.  

Please keep us updated with your progress, we look forward to seeing your basin tap repaired.
