I installed a Moen Adler faucet. It will not shut

I installed a Moen Adler faucet. It will not shut completely off. There is a constant drip. Is there a chance that there is something caught in the valve?

You may just have a piece of sediment lodged in the cartridge from when the water was shut off during installation. Carefully remove the cartridge and turn the water on to flush out any obstructions. re install the cartridge and test.

Installed a new moen adler tub faucet with shower diverter. When you turn on the shower water continues to come out of the tub faucet. Is there an adjustment or is it just the way it is??
Our Moen always dribbled a little since the diverter is metal-to-metal and doesn't really have any seal. The loss shouldn't be a stream though.

Disconnect/reconnect drain part of MOEN (Adler) bathroom faucet CAL84502. I'm changing the entire basin and reinstalling the MOEN faucet system but can't find my original installation instructions.
Should be 3 wing pipe nuts. One at basin base, and one on each end of you elbow. They should all turn counter-clockwise to remove. The one on the basin base likely and commonly has pipe thread tape on it.

My shower/bath control just turns and the water the does not turn on.It initially was dripping constantly then stopped working completely. (Moen)
sounds like the cartridge is stripped where it goes into the handle. If it is not coming on at all from either the hot or the cold....I would say there is a blockage inside the valve body.
