We can't seem to remove the shower handle. We got the knob off (it was threaded), but now the backing behind the knob won’t come off. Every video I find shows the plate should slide right off, but it won’t work. Any thoughts from here? My thinking is it might be so old that it’s corroded. I don’t see any other screw to take out.

  • There might be just caulking/sealer holding it to the wall. Might need a razor blade/thin sharp knife to run behind it.

  • Please add more photos if possible. Unless someone recognizes this exact part, it won't be possible to figure it out from a single angle.

  • imgur.com/a/QhfrzhT Let me know if more angles would be useful. We have a bag of white vinegar to try and break up any possible corrosion on it.

  • Will the other knob come off?

We got it off. Think it was corroded so some vinegar was enough to slide it off. We will be replacing it.
