MY PRICE PFISTER 533-50 HAS BEEN INSTALLED FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS. THE CONTROL WILL NO LONGER MOVE BACK AND FORTH EASILY, AND I CAN SEE NO EASY WAY TO GET INSIDE THE FAUCET TO SEE WHAT NEED WHAT. I THINK POSSIBLY PART 974-570/974-505[V.B.*] NEEDS REPLACING. DOES THE ENTIRE FAUCET NEED TO BE REMOVED TO FIX IT?

https://s1.hmwallace.com/ul_pdfs/366395_OwnersManual.pdf Call PF see if they will honor warranty. Next if they won't remove top and cartridge and try and rock spout back and forth with applying upward pressure. You may have to replace it Online prices $156

Most new kitchen faucets feature single-handle control levers and washerless designs that rarely require maintenance. Additional features include brushed metallic finishes, detachable spray nozzles, or even push-button controls.Connect the faucet to hot and cold water lines with easy-to-install flexible supply tubes made-from vinyl or braided steel. If your faucet has a separate sprayer, install the sprayer first. Pull the sprayer hose through the sink opening and attach to the faucet body before installing the faucet.

Where local codes allow, use plastic tubes for drain hookups. A wide selection of extensions and angle fittings lets you easily plumb any sink configuration. Manufacturers offer kits that contain all the fittings needed for attaching a food disposer or dishwasher to the sink drain system.

The valve body was installed too close to the front of the wall. Open up the wall and set it back per the instructions or live with it.

That faucet was discontinued some time back for the one you ordered parts for and the only way to get the part if it is still available is to know the part number. Now if you have a plumbing parts house in your area that specializes in faucet parts they may be able to match up the old part if you still have it.
If you can find the part number for the faucet you have then the part may still be available from Price Pfister.

It's a new faucet, call Price Pfister and make them overnight you a new one; they are really helpful.

You will need to know either the model number or the collection name of your fixture.

Contact the manufacturer and inquire with the model number whether or not this is indeed a manufacturers defect. A defect usually indicates an immediate problem with the product. This sounds like it is most likely normal wear and tear. Most manufacturers will send replacement parts free of charge as there is often a lifetime warranty on the fixtures. You may need to purchase a replacement pump if it is not covered under warranty.

Call Price Pfister at 800-732-8238 - open Saturdays. They just helped me!

sounds like your diverter is stuck or improperly installed ,try tapping at diverter location to free up diverter the other thing to try is remove the little device on the end of spout make sure its not clogged with debri

Re the 'falling handle' issue, I think you misunderstood the problem, jgwhomeequip. Unfortunately for me I bought *two* similar Price Pfister faucets and both had the same problem - the water wouldn't stay on and the handle just wouldn't stay up.
I took mine apart looking for something to adjust, fruitlessly. Put it back together and have lived with it like that for ~2 years.

Finally I decided to not be a knucklehead any longer and call the manufacturer. Once I got through to their rep (on a Saturday no less!) she helped me identify the model I had (a 533-50SS, just FYI), and asked me 'what finish'? I replied 'stainless steel' and she promptly replied, 'I'm going to mail you out new lighter handles to replace the ones you have'.

Brilliant! Gold star for PP for standing behind their product well past the warranty for what was apparently a common problem. Replacing the handle will take about 10 seconds per faucet.

I only wish I had got of my a$$ and called them 2 years ago.
