This is my first time fixing a faucet.
There was water leakage at the handle faucet of my bathtub. Yesterday, after I pushed and pulled the handle of the faucet a few times, the water stopped coming out completely! I took the parts apart and see if there was anything broken inside but I couldn't figure it out. I only felt that there was almost no resistance when I pushed or pulled the handle. There used to be some resistance when I pushed or pulled the handle.
I went to a local hardware store and the guy there told me that the O-ring at the cartridge might be broken and he told me to take the cartridge out and figure out the size of the replacement O-ring.
However, I was not able to take the cartridge out because it was closely connected to the pipes, etc. Anyone knows how to fix this? There are pictures attached. Please help. Any advice will be appreciated!
