Stuck faucet button

Hi guys, I have a kitchen faucet that's been broken for a while. There's a button on the faucet that switches from sprinkler to normal. It pushes on the same side for both modes, but now it's stuck and it won't release. I was wondering if there's a way I can take that button off and see what's broken. Here are some pictures of the faucet. https://imgur.com/a/9kadUfF

How can I get faucet supply line unstuck?

N

ngrome on Jan 12, 2020

I'm trying to remove a faucet and sink in my bathroom vanity and everything disconnected fine except one of the faucet supply lines (cold) seems to be stuck to the valve supply connection despite being able to unscrew the nut completely, see picture circled in red. How can I get this unstuck? I don't want to use brute force and screw up the valve supply connection (if I'm using that term right) which may end up resorting to calling a plumber. Do I use heat like a heat gun (I don't have a blow torch), tap on it lightly, or use something like PB blaster or liquid wrench? I appreciate any advice. TIARead More

can't remove tub drain

Hello! Hopefully somebody could give me an advice or a suggestion on how to remove a tub drain. I tried to use the pliers and remove it by turning the crossbars, but i broke them. I tried using this tool [url=https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0069QW8EK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1]https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0069QW8EK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/url] , but I broke it as well. I tried this one [url=https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00C0M7DVA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1]https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00C0M7DVA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1[/url] but it doesn't fit. It's too big. I saw a few videos where people cut it out, but I am afraid that I will damage the tub. Are there are any other options? Any other tools that could help? Thank you, JoeRead More
