Garbage disposal not working
01 - Garbage Disposer Start Switch
Some garbage disposer models have a stopper switch (or batchfeed stopper). The batchfeed stopper activates the start switch to start the disposer. If the start switch is defective, the disposer will not turn on. To determine if the start switch is defective, use a multimeter to test the start switch for continuity. If the start switch does not have continuity, replace it.

02 - Wall Switch
If the garbage disposer plugs into a wall outlet, determine if the outlet is getting power. If the unit is not plugged into a wall outlet, use a multimeter to test the wall switch for continuity. In addition, check the home circuit breakers or fuses.
Top Solution
03 - Reset Button Tripped
On most garbage disposals there is a reset button on the bottom, If the button is popped out it has tripped. Press the button in to reset it. Confirm the shredding plate turns freely. If the plate is jammed the reset button will trip again. If the shredding plate cannot be freed up the garbage disposal will need to be replaced.

04 - Non-Serviceable Motor
The disposer motor is not replaceable—if the disposer motor is defective or worn out, you must replace the entire disposer.
Top Solution
05 - Start Switch Is Stuck
If your disposer uses the stopper to turn the unit on and off, and it won't turn, the start switch is either stuck or damaged. You can try removing and reinserting the stopper several times to attempt to get the start switch to work properly. If the unit still won't turn on running, the start switch will need to be replaced. To keep the disposer from running, you will have to either unplug the power cord or shut off the breaker to the garbage disposer.
Highly Likely
06 - Incoming Power Problem
Garbage disposers can be either plugged into an outlet or hardwired in. They may be actuated by a wall switch. If the unit is plugged into an accessible wall outlet you can plug another small appliance into the outlet to confirm there is power. If you cannot access the incoming power connection easily, confirm the circuit breaker suppling power to the disposer has not tripped or the fuses have not blown.
