There will be a nailing flange on the walls of your shower. Typically, drywall screws are used on this flange on the top portion and along outside edges spaced 6-8" apart. Use a high quality tub/shower caulk down the seams.
To find out more about replacement components, get in touch with MAAX directly or go to their website. You might be able to obtain the precise control panel you require from one of their authorized dealers or distributors.It will ensure you get an original one
There are 2 types of litghly cover. A twist off (1/4) turn and a some pry off. It shouldn't be required hi torque. Try twist off first counter clockwise
Generally the drains that are controlled from the
OVER-FLOW do indeed have a rod that goes down
from the face of the overflow... which lifts (opens)
the drain by lifting a hollow (typically plastic) sleeve
from in front of the outflow of the drain...
It is hollow to allow the OVERFLOW to work at all times.
The version you seem to have... WOULD have a
bellows like device that pushes on a plug lever...
More complex... but I seriously believe both may be
serviced through the OVERFLOW
(will attach a drawing below)...
OBVIOUSLY you will want to block the drain before rolling & dropping screws in, on & around the drain HOLE...
Once you see the diagram of the drain MECHANISM...
you will be able to see that jamming in a coat-hanger
was a terrible idea.
You can still most likely remove and repair the
mechanism ... (from the over-flow)

You are looking at buying a new one and installing the entire drain from the bottom (hopefully).

Good tips, but I haven't seen this answered yet. We just bought a house with a Maax tub. The drain is not a pop down, pop up deal. You push in a button in the overflow to raise the drain plug. But the vacuum of the drain pulls it down again. So you have to hold the plug in the entire time it takes to drain. I'm told something can be adjusted for this, but I'm not a plumber, and so far it's not obvious.
If it requires 110/220 volts and was wired to a double breaker... check to see that the do-it-yourself electrician put the breaker in a location that will give 220 volts and not 2 parallel feeds on the same side of the panel. Or else turn the double breaker off and then on to reset it.
Question edited for correct spelling of maker 'Noen' to 'Moen'.
'Fix' as in it is leaking? Or tighten it down because it is wobbly, or something completely different?
Well, we can have a one on one seminar by the internet. I've been a pumpman for 20 years. I can share with you my experience (household pumps, suibmersible pumps, turbine pumps, gear pumps, piston pumps, dewatering pumps, mud pumps, trash pumps, mining pumps, solids handling pump, etc....) Just take your pick. Just send in your e-mail for assistance. God bless.
