How do you reset a stuck garbage disposal?
Make sure that the disposal switch is in the "OFF" position. Gently press the red button in to reset garbage disposal. If it does not stay in (retracted), wait ten minutes and try again. Turn on a cold stream of water and turn the disposal switch to “ON” position, the disposal should now run again.
What does it mean when your garbage disposal just hums?
The humming (or sometimes buzzing) sound that your garbage disposal makes is an indication that there is power coming into the unit but the blades are not turning. The humming sound can be a sign that the motor is clogged or jammed resulting in its failure to grind.

Why did my garbage disposal suddenly stop working?
Locate the reset button beneath the garbage disposal – if the button has popped out, it is likely that the garbage disposal stopped working because it tripped its built-in circuit breaker, probably due to overloading. Press in the reset button – if it does not stay depressed, wait about 10 minutes and try again.
