    Dead garbage disposal?
    Hi there,

    Yesterday I turned on my garbage disposal unit and heard a humming sound. I immediately turned it off and proceeded to clear the unit on any debris which might have jammed the blades (it happened before). I then turned the unit on again and heard nothing. But it worked fine the night before. Any suggestions.

    Look for a reset button that might be located on the bottom. I've worked with a couple of units designed that way. Also, if it is plugged in under the sink, the GFCI (if there is one) might need to be reset on the outlet.

    Hope that is of some help.
