Kitchen mixer tap removal due to leak

by Labi » Sat Aug 27, 2022 4:20 pm

I haven't found a way to remove the dripping cold tap from my kitchen sink mixer. Tried prising off the blue plastic cap without success. Also tried pulling the tap assembly off the mixer unit but it doesn't budge.
Sorry I don't know the make and model but it's a fairly basic design.
Unable to load a photo: being told it's the wrong size!
The tap swivels up and down on the main unit to operate, without any apparent nuts or screws to engage with.
The spout, I believe can be twisted out of the mixer body after removing the small grub screw at the back but that doesn't release the tap head - does it...? Thanks for any advice.

Hi labi,
Difficult to advise you without a picture.
Go to the welcome section then the section on adding images. This should give you enough information to be able to reduce the image size and load your images. It's probably worth repeating your post as a new post with the image and we will remove the original.
Regards S
