Bathroom overflow pop up plug mechanism

[jmackay85]

Hello,

can someone please help me with some troubleshooting on my bath pop up plug overflow mechanism. When I turn the chrome disc (lever) the plug does not move up/down.

I have removed the chrome disc (lever) and tried to actuate the spindle in which attaches to with plyers however plug did not move up/down.
I have also checked and confirmed the plug spindle length and lock nut are correct/ tight.

appreciate any help.

For about £15. Not worth the hassle of even trying to fix it.
