Price Pfister Avante identification

[Rns]

Hello,

I'm trying to repair a leaking shower faucet. I think I've identified the correct one. I ordered part 36011 to replace but I cant seem to get the cartridge out. I've removed the handle, then the threaded metal piece and thats are far as I have gotten. The cartridge that is in place is green if that helps at all. I've attached a pic of the faucet for proper identification.

Thanks

That should be the right cartridge for that.

You have the threaded keeper and then it should pull out. It can be hard.

Thanks for the quick response. So just do my best to pull it out then?

I believe so. They can get pretty friendly having been there so long and are regretful to leave on their own.
Yes, a little more muscle.

That did the trick. Replaced it a few minutes ago. Thanks. Wonder what that would have costs if I had a plumber come out.

whatever their minimum charge is. The easiest way is to replace the screw in the stem, grab it with pliers, push it closed, then YANK it out/open. May have repeat as necessary
