Best way to fix it is to replace it.

Absolutely. Same one I have. Big plastic piece of crap. Been meaning to replace it, but never think about it 'til I'm camping. As far as removing the handle, I haven't looked at it that closely yet.

Just before you turn on hot water, turn up the volume on stereo

The ones I've seen like that the handle is sitting on a sprocket and a screw from the bottom comes up through the middle of the sprocket into the handle to secure it.

I have one like that. I take the handles off, remove and grease the cartridge "O" rings a couple of times a year. The handle you use to turn the faucet on and off just unscrew. Grab the lever and give it a twist to the left, the rest is obvious. Be careful pulling the cartridges, the rubber seats under them are spring loaded. About a five minuet job. I use silicone food grade faucet grease found at home depot.

Squeaky faucet
PhoneDude8289, thanks for the info. In the pic I wasn’t able to remove the cylinder I think it’s one piece and connected to the water supply. But I greased all the moving parts...it seems to do the trick so far

The cylinder will lift right out, may need a little wiggle, friction fit because of "O" rings now that you have that nut off. Ounce the cylinder is out you have access to the "O" rings and give it all a good coat of grease.

I have the same faucet, and bought a different one to replace it. Now, I can't figure out how to remove the faucet. I have taken the handles off, and tried to remove the faucet, but it won't come up. I looked under neath and opened the front drawer in front to be able to see why, but can't remove it. Can any one help?

You reawakened a 4 year old thread.
Second, you didn't quote the member you're asking. If it's the OP, they haven't posted here in two years.
Lastly, before reawakening an old thread, it's better to simply send a PM to the member you're asking the question to.
