Hi, I have a bit of a problem and a mess at hand. I have a double sink kitchen sink and the water won't flow. I have a broken dish washer near it (from previous owner) and when i tried to plunge the water at the sink, some of it is seeping up the dish washer inside. To make things worse, when I tried to move the drain pipes underneath the sink to try to insert the auger past the U trap, i heard a crack sound near the vertical pipe (coming down the sink) and now that pipe is leaking water.

How can I go about trying to first fix the leaking pipe then try to tackle the clog? Any inside will greatly help alleviate my stress. Thanks a bunch!

 

That line probably needs to be snaked back to the wall.
It doesn't look like that trap is removable which is going to make the process very difficult.

 

Very hard to tell what can actually come apart.
I see only one screw down coupling on the sinks tail piece.
Are there others?

Also the leak may mean that you will need a new strainer so you will also have to remove it so you can find the leak/crack or if it is just a bad seal.

 

I would try a small hand crank drain auger. Since you've cracked/broke the pipe now would be a good time to replace the sink drain piping and trap with a slip fitting type which can be easily disassembled for cleaning.

 

I agree with PD. Trash all those glued fittings.

 

Also a good time to get rid of the old ABS pipe and install the drains correctly.
