Most faucets have a ring located at the spigot outlet. This ring can be unscrewed and contains a small screen. Over time build up from various in the water will coat and clog this small screen creating the necessity to remove and clean or even repace it. If this does not work and the facucet is old the problem could be more serious with contaminants or severe wear in the water transer segment of the unit and may call for a faucett replacement. Can you be more specific as to where the ring is that can be unscrewed?

What is the function of a kitchen faucet diverter and how does it work in a plumbing system?
The function of a kitchen faucet diverter is to control the flow of water between the faucet and a separate sprayer attachment. It works by redirecting the water flow from the faucet to the sprayer when the sprayer is activated, and then back to the faucet when the sprayer is turned off. This allows for convenient switching between the two water outlets in a plumbing system.
What would cause the water flow in a kitchen faucet not to come on and then come on all of a sudden and sometimes the sprayer works and sometimes it does not?
The easy answer is sediment like lime or build-up. Unscrew the round part at the end of the faucet where the water comes out. There is a screen located in it. Check to make sure the screen is not blacked. If it is you can pick up a replacement from any home improvement store. As for the sprayer there is also a screen inside of the sprayer. You can take it apart and clean it or just buy a replacement for about $10. CLR is a cleaner that I have used to clean and remove sediment.
What the sprayer works?
well, i think it has something to do with water as it has the work "sprayer" in it, also the works part tells us that whatever it is it is working, so I'm guessing maybe a water gun or something like that. :) from miamiaamiaaa

There is no water coming from your hot tap in the kitchen hot water works in the bathroom how can you fix this?
If there is a shut off valve under the sink, shut it off and take the line off going to the faucet. Turn the valve on slightly to see if there is water going through it. If there is, the problem has to be in the faucet. Either the washer in the hot water side has come off and is plugging the faucet, or if it is a single handle faucet, the cup is bad. Either one is easy enough to fix. Message me back if you need help fixing it.
