Question: What are these shower spares for?
Answer: The spindle and cogs in the Villeroy & Boch 04.90.03.2100090 rotates as the shower’s flow control knob is turned. It also turns the two flow cartridges in opposite directions to open and close shower water flow.

Question: How do I replace the 04.90.03.2100090?
Answer: Open the 35.405.970.90 shower by removing the handles and wallplate. Remove the gearbox cover by undoing the four screws on it to access the 04.90.03.2100090 Villeroy & Boch shower valve part.

Remove the spindle and unscrew the gears. Replace the parts and reassemble the valve.

Question: How would I know what is the front and back of the gears?
Answer: There is no front or back for the gears of shower spare Villeroy & Boch 04.90.03.2100090. It can be fitted either way.

Question: The shower is leaking. Is this the spare part I need?
Answer: Showers can leak due to a variety of reasons. If the leak is connected to the 04.90.03.2100090 Villeroy & Boch flow volume control assembly the white plastic part on the gears might have worn out. This is the replacement part you need.

Question: Should silicone grease be used on this shower spare?
Answer: Yes, the O-rings of the two cartridges will have to be greased before installing it in the valve. You can find the plumbers grease we carry in the last part of the page.

Question: What size spanner do I use to remove the cartridges?
Answer: A 22mm spanner can remove the cartridges.

Question: Is it possible to buy only the cartridge?
Answer: The Villeroy & Boch 04.90.03.2100090 can be bought as a set. If the cartridge shows signs it needs to be replaced there’s a possibility that the spindle and cogs will wear out sooner rather than later. Changing it as a whole is a more efficient and cost-effective solution.
