Water will not come out of shower, only out of faucets
When I turn on my shower in the bathroom water will not come out of the shower anymore but continues to flow out of both faucets. Is something clogged? I took off the shower head but the holes are not clogged. What else can I do to have the water flow from the shower like it always did before and not flow from the faucets.

Your shower faucet valves have o-rings that need to be replaced.
You will need a set of faucet valve sockets to find one that will fit the hex part of yours.
Valve Socket Set
Turn off the water, and open the bathroom sink faucets to relieve pressure.
Remove the handles of the shower faucets, and unscrew the valves counter-clockwise.
Take the valves to the hardware store and replace the o-rings and the rubber washers on the end of the stems.
Good LucK!
