You can determine if your faucet cartridge is bad by observing several clear symptoms: the faucet continues to drip steadily when the handle is turned completely off, the handle feels extremely stiff or loose when rotated, water seeps out around the handle base trim plate during use, or you experience wild temperature fluctuations that cannot be fixed by adjusting the limit stop. Verification: Disassemble the handle trim to inspect the cartridge for cracks, warping, or heavy mineral scaling.
