I am going to share a additional tip on the very hard to remove Cartridge issue , All Replacement Cartridges of this type from Moan Come with a special Tool in the package that many think is simply a protective cap on the top of the stem , this "tool" fits down into the top of your stuck cartridge enabling you to turn it , you then can use a wrench on the square head of the tool rotate the cartridge first breaking it free from all stiction of the rubber seals , than remove the tool and it will come out easily. If you end up with hot and cold selection reversed remove the handle holder held down by the Philips screw and rotate the inner valve stem a half a turn then reassemble , Example of the use of this tool .. kzread.info/dash/bejne/pX-lrNRwpa-znKg.html

Oh wow... "this size" lol. How helpful... Glad mine was a little clearer! Thanks for the comment.

Thanks for taking the time to show us this repair. I found it very informative and well presented. My kitchern faucet is a little different than yours with a longer handle. What I was afraid of was not knowing what size cartridge to put in. I thought I would have to turn off the water, pull out the cartridge, go to the hardware store to find a replacement. But with your video I just looked for a 1225 cartridge before starting the job. The clerk told me that Moen faucets are all under a lifetime warranty. I told him I no longer had the receipt. He says no problem and goes to a sepsrate cabinet and pulls out a cartridge. He said it was free of charge. Doing the repair was a breeze knowing what to look for and how to do it. So Many thanks. You will have good karma !!

One rubber square seal was ripped up once removed, I did clean the bore of the faucet with a slotted wood dowel with sand paper to polish it inside for a fresh finish for the new cartridge, and some faucet lube works great and does not leak now!

At 7:37, you can clearly see the white deposits at the joints where it was leaking. Mine leaks at one joint under the handle, but above the faucet.With other videos, they mentioned the leak where yours is, but they continued below after removing the cartridge, to remove 2 large washers. The free Moen cartridge kits, with o rings come with Allen wrench, but also with the variety of o rings, and a proper lubricant that will not damage the rubber ring. I did not see you show those rings. But....it worked perfectly. Great video.

Ok, just finished this. It's true about using the special tool do help get it out. I didn't have it so I too stood on top of the sink to get it out. When I bought the new stem, the special tool came with it. It's just a plastic small piece. Fyi on this reinstall, I thought I didn't seat the stem correctly after I finished because only a little water was coming out. I took it all back out and tried again along with a few cuss words. I put it back together , same deal. I got pissed and started to turn it off and on like a mad man and then it started to flow like normal. In other words, after your install, turn the water off and on a bunch. What's happening is the o rings are finding there home, so to speak. I washed my hands, told the wife I fixed it (sex later) and now i will have a beer. Adios.

So I finally got this done after about 2.5 hours. Things to be wary of. The orientation of the cartridge is critical to get the clip back in. And older faucet will be difficult to get old parts off. I needed to heat the handle for a minute and use a piece of wood to lever the handle off with full strength.

Great video! Just make sure you watch the orientation of the initial cartridge and white piece before replacing them. And take it slow putting the allen bolt back in handle. I rushed it the first time and messed the orientation of the handle. You have to hold the handle at an exact, correct orientation to get allen bolt back in properly. Also I used a t-shaped handle to remove the cartridge. I didn't read the instructions at first (hey, I'm a guy) and tried to turn the T handle like a wine bottle opener. Instead, you are supposed just use the t-handle to pull straight up. But by turning it, I was able to loosen the cartridge so it easily pulled up with a pliers.

Yes Moen has a Life Time guarantee. They are absolutely the BEST company to deal with hands down. I will always buy Moen they are the absolute best.

So after an hour of struggling and two of us trying to pull the handle off, I finally got a hair dryer, WD40 and a three foot piece of wood to lever, with a twisting motion, and pop the handle off with as much strength as I could give it. It went flying three feet in the air finally. What the video shows will work if it's a fairly new faucet. But a 14 year old one, even one I had apart 5 years ago, will get calcification build up under it and it's about as strong as epoxy.

Right! Their video is better, but people tend to still watch mine. Can’t explain that, but I’m not complaining! Thanks for the comment 👍

Hi 👋 I commented last year-2021-6how I couldn’t get cartridge out, but after using 👉CLR & WD40 -I finally was able to replace the cartridge by Moen. Thank you so much 😊 for your video. I had to fix my Faucett yesterday April 4, 2022 as I had a leak so I used your video again. Thank you Sir 👍🇺🇸

Hey there! Wow, glad this video helped you, twice! 😁 Glad using CLR and WD40 did the trick. Those can really be stuck sometimes. Nice work and good to hear from you again 👍

Very helpful video, so glad that I found it. I have Meon sinks for both my kitchen and bathrooms installed in my home when it got built. Do anyone know if it will still be under warranty if you don't have the receipt because a developer built my house. I saw that faucet parts have like limited years of warranty.

Glad the video helped you. From what it sounds like from others making comments; receipt or no receipt, Moen will take care of you. Best of luck!

Great video demonstration...”thanks..”

True. I replaced mine with cheap one made in China I regret it.

Muy útil el video. Primero porque sabes la herramienta que necesitas. Yo batallé para la medida de la llave Allen. Porque tenía varias y ninguna quedaba. Aquí me doy cuenta que se necesita de 7/64". Luego el procedimiento que está muy detallado. Saludos. Saltillo, Coahuila.

THANK YOU for this video !!!!

Moen sent me a free kit to re-install the cartridge (15 yrs old). But am having trouble getting the handle seated properly. As long as you are the original owner of Moen Water products, they will send needed parts Free and post-free.

Hello. Yes the free parts are fantastic! It is somewhat of a pain to fix these due to the corrosion and wear over the years. I hope things worked out and you were able to get this replaced. Thanks for coming and have a great day!

If your having problems getting the cartridge out use vise grips on the top skinny part and pull hard upwards, also using 2 people to pull upwards works well.

Great video. Out of curiosity, is there anything else we can do besides replacing the whole cartridge? I read somewhere (houzz or #HealthyKitchen101, I don’t remember exactly) that we can replace the washer or the O-ring(s) to fix the valve. Can we do the same here?

Frank A. Rhyne hello Frank. I would say replacing an o-ring is a possibility to fix the issue, but if it doesn’t you’ll have to change the cartridge all the same. If the cartridge was in excess of $20, I’d say try the o-ring. But because it’s a $15 or cheaper part, just hedge and replace the whole thing. A lot of people report that Moen will replace the cartridge for free, so it might be worth a call to Moen customer service. Best of luck!

Thanks man, helped me out alot!!!!

Don't know if this thread is active, but it's been very helpful to me. I have one question. Should we use silicone-based grease before inserting the new cartridge? Since it wasn't in my cartridge's instructions to do so, I did not do this. But I have seen where others say it's imperative to do so. Very helpful video.

Hey Len. This thread is still active! Thanks for your question. I did not use grease either and I’ve had no issues since the repair. I think you’re good!

If the cartridge is REALLY stuck and you can't loosen it with the little tool that comes with a new cartridge, Moen sells a puller for removing the old cartridge. It's $47 so try the plastic one first.

Hello. Yes, removing the cartridge can be a bear and sometimes the puller is a requirement. Thanks for the great advice and comment!

Do you have the specs on the O rings that seal the spout ? It's difficult to get the right ones once they are worn.

Hello. I’m sorry I do not have that information unfortunately. Perhaps take the old ones into a hardware store and see if they’ve got something that’s the same size. Sorry I could not be of much help! Thanks for commenting and for the question.👍👍👍

Thanks for the video, helped a lot to see it done first!
