How To Repair Bath Shower Mixer Taps

Hi
Hoping someone can help!

The mixer tap in my bath stopped working almost a year ago. It was never really a pressing repair so it got sidelined: now doing the firm upward to sell and so I figure I all-time get it fixed.
Essentially, water comes through the shower heads just not the taps. The toggle that went up and down to change between the two outlets no longer works.
From what I've read, I need a replacement role (although what it'due south chosen I don't know) and I need to switch the water off, remove the role and replace.
Can anyone tell me what the part I need is chosen and the tools I'll need to practise the job. I'm a DIY novice and then I'd rather know if I'grand taking on more than I should before I de story the bathroom and the task ends upward costing more than than it would accept to get someone out to fix it.
I've attracted pictures to give a rough idea of the tap unit of measurement.
Thanks fle

As long as the taps are off at that place's no need to turn annihilation else off.
There should be apartment department on the diverter which will enable you to unscrew (anti-clockwise looking from higher up). You will be able to lift the diverter assembly out of the tap. Probably needs replacement 'O' rings - take the complete assembly to a decent independent plumber's merchant and come across if they can assistance yous out with replacements.
Cheers! Will endeavor taking it apart at the weekend and will have it from in that location.
