Can you tell a blind person how to steer a car and take you someplace without crashing? Probably, so you can probably do the shower valve. Some possible problems to consider. Getting to the control valve. Almost certainly from the backside of the shower. Is there access to that or do you need to cut a hole in the wall. Does the valve have threaded connections or are they sweated on copper? It is unlikely that you can get the same exact model of valve so the fittings that are on the pipes for the old one will probably not fit on the new one. This means you will have to unsolder the old connections and install the new ones. If you can use a pipe wrench and a crescent wrench, understand how to hold the pipe so you don't break it, you should be able to change it out. Sweating copper is about the easiest thing to do in Plumbing once you know how.

In kitchen why is water only coming out water spout and not main faucet?

Single and two handled faucets are different in the exact mechanism but the overall process is the same. Inside of the faucet there is a valve that diverts water from the main spout to the sprayer. Squeezing the sprayer handle opens its valve, releases pressure in the faucet, and diverts water to the sprayer.It sounds like this internal valve is jammed or broken.Call the manufacturer. I had this problem in the kitchen and Moen (the maker) provided directions on how to fix it. They can also direct you to a source for the parts.Visit a plumbing supply store. If you go during the less busy times of the day (late morning before lunch for example) they will often take the time to work with you.Replace the faucet.
