You will need to buy the o-rings to fix it. You can buy at most hardware stores if you know how to turn off the water you can fix this with more instructions. Let me know if you need more help.

Remove the air-irater at the end of the faucet where the water comes out. That is where 99% of clog are on faucets. If that does not do it then you need to replace the cartridge.

Good Luck and please rate 4 thumbs up for the free answer.

First thing to check is if it has a strainer on the spout that has debris. The second thing is if you have a sprayer attachment the diverter valve is a chronic problem with kitchen faucets.

Hi John,

Welcome to fixya!

Is the low water flow in both hot and cold? If it is only one that has a reduced flow, then check the incoming water lines under the sink for any kinks in the hose. When you took off the aerator, did the water flow increase without the aerator on? If it did, then soak the aerator in a vinegar/water solution for a while to clear the buildup from the screen. I know you said you cleaned the screen out, but sometimes a film will build on the screen also.

If the reduced flow is from both, probably the valve needs to be replaced. Be sure to turn the water off at both hot and cold before disassembling your faucet.
There are some things you can check once you disassemble the faucet. An o-ring could have disintegrated and plugged up the flow, or maybe it's out of place. Or, you could have crud buildup inside the valve. Once you get the valve out, you can try flushing it out by soaking it in a vinegar/water solution and then replacing it. If that does not help, then replace the valve. You must have the exact valve number as different model faucets use different valves even from the same company.

Here is a webpage with a parts diagram for your faucet: http://www.us.kohler.com/onlinecatalog/pdf/1084452_2.pdf

Page 8 has directions on how to get to the valve.

Good luck.

Hope this helps. If it does, I'd appreciate your vote. Thanks,
