Pipes maybe frozen in that area. Something lodged in the pipes going to the kitchen sink that prevents water flow. Access line turned off in cabinet below kitchen sink.

Checking the pressure does not assure a good flow rate. If the valve under the sink is fully open and still no water, then you will need to disconnect the sink faucet from the valve and turn it on to see if there is enough water flow at the valve under the sink. Better put a short hose on it and point it into a bucket or it will spray everywhere. If that does not work then there is a blockage in the pipe before the valve, otherwise the blockage is after the valve.

nicely... first ingredient you do is pull it aside. There may be some hunk of stuff lodged interior the faucet. you're able to have a wrench and an allen wrench - now and lower back the take care of is bumped off with an allen wrench - after which you unscrew the main substantial "cartridge" with the prevalent wrench... and clean out what's interior. in line with threat you additionally can replace the areas in there on the comparable time. In a washerless faucet there is two little spring and a pair of rubber issues that can get replaced. that's probable it - there is not any different reason i will think of of why the flow of water is sluggish aside from the exhibit screen which you have checked. in spite of the undeniable fact that... i understand as quickly as I labored on a bathtub faucet which did this... and we never did discover out what grew to become into incorrect. We ultimately only decrease it out and altered the faucet.

Sounds like a sediment problem. It could be clogged in the cartridge, or the diverter thingy, (if the faucet has a sprayer as well) You need to remove the cartridge and turn on the supply valve with the cart. removed. Place a cup over the valve stem and hold on! or you'll get very wet. Only other place that may be clogged id the aerator on the end of the sphigot.
New faucet? Refer to the owners manual for details about removing the cart. or aerator.

Yeah, check to make sure the water is turned back on under the sink. (I did that once after replacing a faucet, drove me nuts until my dad thought to check). Other than that . . . don't know, might be time to call a plumber.
