Unfortunately that didnt fit correctly. The yellow prong part is too long and doesnt fit into the hot and cold water holes. I measured the temp of the hot water Im getting and its reads 101.2.
You have a first generation rough valve then and No the non pressure balanced cartridges will not fit. You need the old style 13/14 series cartridge. It’ll typically have the lower half of the cartridge made from a blue plastic.

I warned you that if you don’t have a new valve it will not fit. You do not have the updated valve.

I’ll post a regular cartridge that should fit…..

Everything your saying points to replacing the cartridge...sorry.
Definitely seen people install them without cleaning out the body with a little piece of scotch Brite. Take a good look inside and make sure you don't see any rocks/build-up. Then before install open up the integral stops for each supply for a few seconds ds to blow out any calcium/scale deposits. Sometimes the stops itself are the problem with the rubber washers breaking into small pieces and cloggs the brand new cartridge. To the point that I do touch stops anymore. It's either building shutdown or nothing.
Thanks, Possibly the new cartridge that I purchased was faulty so I will replace it with a new one and hope this solves the issue
