AquaSource Shower Cartridge Identification

[atlrk]

Hello -

My AquaSource shower faucet is leaking. I believe the cartridge needs to be replaced but I've been unable to find it. Below/Attached is a picture and I created a video showing different angles of the cartridge: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UP6z48_yOwWu934DzzZT3UaCxTWbh6YX/view

Can you please point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance!

That might be a store brand, like maybe Lowe’s.

That sounds familiar.

Yeah - I think it is a store brand from Lowe’s. I tried reaching out to them, but they pointed me to a part that was larger than what is currently installed. Hoping there might be another path forward.

Your path forward is to beat the bushes very hard.
Search Google images, Youtube, Yahoo.

Look for keywords like aquasource cartridge Lowes red green plastic square stem.

However, now you have learned, when you buy a crappy valve, you suffer the after effects.

Thanks, Jeff. Yeah, I've been doing just that; although you have given me a couple new new words to add to the query.

The part Lowe's suggested was a Danco 1-Handle Plastic Tub/Shower Valve Cartridge for Glacier Bay.

The most similar one I've found is the Danco 89932 but not quite a match.

Oops, I meant red blue plastic.

I wasn't able to find the cartridge but did replace the "seats & springs" which seems to have stopped the leak for now. The part I used was Danco 88050 which I bought off Amazon. Hope this can help someone else in the future. Also hope it holds
