I have a price pfister shower and spout installed and the diverter stopped working. I don't get any flow to the shower head anymore with spout knob pulled up. So I need to change the spout. Problem is I can't remove the spout :p.

I took a look under it and see no screw of any kind. Unable to to turn it (using a screw driver to put in the spout opening and use it for leverage). I applied reasonable amount of force trying to turn it.

Seeking your thoughts before I go insane force trying to turn it an possibly snap it off :( ?



Fixed!! was able to unscrew

Update: Well it did Unscrew off. Had to put insane amount of force. Snapped off the plastic parts. Then I had more room to insert the screw driver and it came off easy. off to store I go now.
