Bradley Cole 0399 cam and cartridge

[dncool]

Hi! I bought and replaced a VERY old Bradley Cold cartridge because there was no hot water from the shower. It's a single handle, walk in shower, no tub. Now I replaced it, and checked behind the cartridge and there is no blockage, but no hot water still. Suggestions would be great. It's in my 2nd story condo and no direct shutoff to the hot water at the valve.

Thanks!

Have you turned the water on with the cartridge removed?

No Sir, I have not. I read that idea earlier in a different thread. I will pull it tomorrow and see what happens. What should i expect? I am imagining a LOT of water, but how will i know if it is blocked or not?
Sorry for the dumb ?s, but i want to make sure I am clear. Thanks so much

@LockePlumbing... when i remove the cartridge, and when i turn the water on, will/should I notice both hot AND cold coming out of the pipe?

If you turn the water on with the cartridge removed you should see water coming out of the hot and cold side.
