How do you correct water faucet handles that are on when in the outward position?

I assume the handles are the quarter turn type. If you turn the into the bowl to shut them off, it may be that the handles are just set on the stems wrong. If this is not the case, the cartridge in each side is in backwards. Shut the water off, take the handle off and the ring under the handle that holds the cartridge in. Pull straight up on the stem, pulling the cartridge out and rotate the whole cartridge 180 degrees and reinstall. There should be two small notches in the body of the faucet that line up with bumps on the cartridge.
