One thing I have learned. Check for leaks after any plumbing job even if I pay plumber. I’m real anal about it I’ll put down paper towel or take cover off days later make sure there no tiny drips.

Mainly posted it so he couldn’t see what the problem was. Most likely the o-ring in front of the springs are blocking the water flow?
