Is this a new automatic super WaterSense faucet?
I have a regular Delta single handle kitchen faucet, no more than 5 years old.
It was a warranty replacement for a prior higher quality Delta faucet.
Quite suddenly, the new one refused to work. If you use it at low flow it's fine.
If the flow rises above some level there's a distinct CLUNK from the cartridge and locks up. No flow.
Rest it 15 - 20 minutes, and it works again as above.
Removing the cold and hot supply lines does not change anything. When working, water will flow out the disconnected side as normal. Removing pressure does not "reset" the faucet.
What could be up?
