I had a similar problem. Turned out to be simple to fix. Unscrew the shower head to see if water flows. Mine had a piece of solder stuck in it.

Judy,
Depending on the the architect there may be shutoff valves located in a wall with an an access panel covering them as the past owner may not have used the appliance often. Assuming you have owned this unit for some time and it suddenly quit working you may have a defective stem on a single handle unit. Their are also some valves that have shutoff screws located beneath the cover plate which may also be the problem. If you can provide more info such as how long you have had the unit, when it stopped working, and type of valve and model I may be able to assist you better. Lok forward from hearing from you and thanks for using Fix Ya.
Jim

Installed new tub/shower valve, water comes out of showerhead when water is turned on even though spout is open

the diverter valve is probably bad. put a new one in. the valve cuts off the water to shower, while running bath water.

Water comes from both the shower head and bath tub faucet when bath is turnd on and wont turn off when shower is on

if it is standard shower where you pull the knob up when water is running. the pull knob lifts a flap to shut off water to bottom faucet it proably has some buildup on the flap clean well with some clr or other calcium cleaner like it so the flap gets a clean seal on downspout

Just installed shower and faucet in bath tub when you turn the water on the water comes out of the faucet and shower head. When you pull the lever for just the shower the water cuts off at faucet and comes...

Verify the height from the shower valve to the Shower head, the instructions specify the correct distance if it is too short the pressure could be getting up to the shower head.

Perhaps the water pressure it too high at the valve not allowing all the water down the faucet outlet, there are set screws on the sides of the shower valve to adjust the water allowed in the mixing chamber.

Something is restricting the water flow to the faucet, creating enough pressure to send some of the ater supply up to the shower.

I hope some of these ideas help
