I have a Price Pfister single lever shower fixture. It no longer has hot water. When I turn the lever all the way, the water just stays cold. I have hot water in every other place, just not in this shower. Any ideas?

One of two things, some crud caught on the inlet to the hot side, or the pressure-balance valve is stuck (assuming it is an anti-scald valve). If you turn the valve to the hottest setting, do you get any water out? Does it decrease in volume?

When I turn the knob to the what is to be the hottest water, it's full blast cold. No loss of volume, it's just cold. It's funny you ask that though. For a few weeks prior to this when I turned the knob all the way up, water just dribbled out.
