I've got a mixer bath tap/shower hose. The diverter is seized. Shown in photo is what I believe is the diverter cartridge (bottom) with the internal splines but there is no flats to unscrew it. I believe it therefore needs pulling out (retained with oring?) but it's recessed except for about 5mm. How do I get it out without being able to get anything around it to get any purchase?
The bit on the top screws off but doesn't expose any access behind the diverter cartridge.
I've tried descaling with citric acid but no luck.
Do I need to turn water off before removing? I assume not. There is no accessible local isolator.
