        I woke up at 1:00am this morning, and heard something funny, it sounded like water running. I got out of bed and it was the faucet at the bathroom sink running full blast! First off, I know I turned it off when I went to bed, and I always use the coldest water possible, so the dial was pegged to the right when I turned it off. At 1:00am this morning it was running full blast and the dial was in the middle.

        Would this mean that the cartridge needs to be replaced, or the seals, or do I have a ghost in my house (ha!)?web page

          Howdy Mam,

          Well Darlin the problem could very well be excessive grease Moen used on the cartridge.

          Possible solution dissemble and wipe off excess and re install good luck dear
