Need help removing cartridge.

[riglertke]

Hello. I hope someone can help.

I noticed a leak from the cold faucet in the shower and wanted to replace the cartridge. I have done this on other faucets in the past with no difficulty. This one is challenging me. I tried using deepwell sockets but I cannot find the right size. The sleeve is in the way but does not want to come off. It looks like it was put in and sealed with grout. I think the faucet is Prie Pfister from the logo I was able to make out on the underside of the spigot. Anyone have suggestions?

Thanks.

The sleeve does screw off counter clockwise. Use a rubber strap wrench positioned as close to the wall as possible and turn to remove. Price Pfister has changed the design of your cartridge. It now has a black plastic front that is extremely difficult to work with. I would use a generic cartridge to replace. Both versions were part # 910-030
