I have a one handle Moen shower with a push button diverter that is under the handle. The push button totally broke off (has a jagged end) It shot out of the face plate while taking a shower and water shoots out of the hole. I tried to fix this by putting in a tub diverter spout, it does briefly divert the water to the shower head,then the old push button shoots out again along with water. Is there a way I can just plug the hole?
You will have to replace the shower diverter button. Remove the handle, remove the faceplate, and the diverter will screw out. Any plumbing supply that carries Moen products will have a replacement button for your valve
SOURCE: Diverter valve does not work correctly.
the connections are reversed,just change them over and this will fix the problem.
SOURCE: shower diverter push handle is squirting water out
If you are handy, the best solution is to call delta and have them send you a new diverter. They will need the model of your faucet. The new diverter will come with instructions on the install process. As far as fixing it without the new diverter, I don't believe you will be able to.
