Here’s how you can troubleshoot and fix it: 🔧 Step-by-Step Fix: 1️⃣ Turn Off Power – Unplug the disposal or turn off the circuit breaker to avoid electrical hazards. ⚡❌ 2️⃣ Check for Jams – Use a flashlight to look inside the disposal. If you see anything blocking the blades, use pliers or tongs (never your hand) to remove the obstruction. 🧐🔦 3️⃣ Use the Hex Key – Locate the hex hole (Allen wrench slot) under the unit. Insert a 1/4" hex wrench and turn it back and forth to free the impellers. 🔄🔧 4️⃣ Press the Reset Button – Once cleared, press the red reset button located at the bottom of the unit. 🔴 5️⃣ Turn Power Back On – Restore power and test the disposal by running cold water and switching it on. 🚰✅
