Thanks for watching! 😃
OMG! I flipped the switch, disposal hummed, then went silent. Turned it off, turned the grinder with my tool. It was stuck so I swivwledit back and forth. Go it loose. Nothing in it to jam it.
Checked the breaker box. All good. Plugged in tight. Watched your video and you showed the Reset button. Got my flashlight, looked and sure enough! button was popped out. Pushed it back in, turned the water on and flipped the switch. Oila! Works like a champ! I am 82 years old and can follow directions! Thank you so much for the very clear steps for checking everything.
Thanks so much! I was able to reset my garbage disposal. Man I love UA-cam!
The trick with the garden stake saved me. Thank you!
Using a wooden stick to rotate it, you are a genius! I followed your suggestion and it works, without need for finding the tool.
Thank you for the helpful video! When my disposal stopped working, I turned to UA-cam in a panic. Luckily, I found your video and followed your instructions. Without having any tools, I was able to spin the disposal with a stick and get it working again. You're awesome! 😊

My disposal got stuck -- was just buzzing, so l pulled everything out under the insinkerator, and there was the trusty Allen wrench underneath the paper bags.
I'm a roommate here in this apt, so wasn't even sure if there was a wrench. Worked like a charm!
Thanks!!! 👍👍👍

Thank you for going over all the possible fixes. I was losing hope because I misplaced the one size allen wrench that had helped me previously. Ended up using the wooden handle of a spatula to move the blades around and it worked! I wouldnt have thought of that without your example!

Thanks, a 6mm Allen key fit mine, 1/4” probably correct size but I had metric set handy. Got it freed up & found one of those corn cob holders (the little pins you stick in corn on the cob for kids) jammed in there. I’ve never had a disposal before this house so new to me.
This video was very helpful. Thank you so much for the education. I was able to have the garbage disposal work from this video. Excellent work with taking the time to go step by step, you're excellent with your explanation.
That is great to hear! Very happy to help!
