Today it’s often easier to buy new than repair. The small nut you released is a drain point. Tbh the tap should be fixed to the wall and not floating .

So useful, thank you! Waited weeks for plumber s who didn’t turn up. Watched this, put my brave boots on, and had a go, and ... I now have a working outside tap! Maybe no big deal for most, but pretty chuffed I did it, and without flooding my home! 😊 Many Thanks again

Thanks for the help mate! Had a similar problem, the valve inside was a bit gunked shut but once I took the tap off, poked the valve free with a screwdriver it worked again nicely. I recommend having some PTFE tape on hand to reseal the tap thread when putting it back on.
