September 4, 20178 yr My shower (handle) stem broke inside the cartridge which is in the wall (controls both hot/cold as well as on/off). I have tried to see if could wiggle it out (after closing water! ) but it is well stuck. Would be great to get the full cartridge out to search for a replacement that would fit instantly - but I might have to drill the crap out of it and drag out little bits? This might be beyond my DIY skills, but any input appreciated. Also; any input on a good handy man (am Bangkok, Sathorn based) who can do the next steps for me, Incl. advise on buying replacement, without ripping me off, would be appreciated. Cheers!
September 4, 20178 yr There might be an allen screw holding the cartridge? Depending on model it should simply unscrew? I had one in Canada that wouldn't emit hot water. The service guy on the phone asked me what my cold water temperature was. When I told him 35 F he laughed and asked for my address and said he would send me a different cartridge .
