Incredibly helpful!!! You review the options in a step by step manner. Thanks for reminding me what the disposal tool looked like! Found it in my tool box where I put over 9 years ago. Inserted it as directed, cranked to the left, felt and heard the grind of rust. We had been travelling for 6 weeks; it hadn't been used. Plugged it in, turned on the water, pressed the air switch--the sweet sound of success! The smell of rust came up, then the grinding noise smoothed out to a smoother rotation. I should have watched the part where you get smooth movement with the tool. Fortunately, the motor was able to handle it. I was going to spend time and money because someone said that if you press the air switch and you hear nothing, then your switch is bad. I'm sooo glad I spent the time to find this particular video and educate myself to a more informed decision process. Loved Deanin' it!!!

So, I'm drunk in a hotel room. Garbage disposal doesn't work. Look under the sink. Garbage disposal tool aka allen wrench, was zip tied to the garbage disposal. Pulled it apart and found a whole entire dishrag in there and a tiny screw. Boom! Fixed! Now I don't have to change rooms! Thanks for the video. 1 and 3/4 thumbs up cus i forgot to unplug it! jk

@karenb5744 Жыл бұрын

I had the humming noise, so I tried the reset button, but that didn't help. Then it wouldn't even hum. So I used the dishwasher, er, um, I mean the garbage disposal tool, and the reset button again. It worked! You make me feel so smart and capable. Oh, and I LOVE your sense of humor. Thank you so much!!

My husband and I don't like calling the maintenance guys 😒 so we waited and was going to call tomorrow for repair. But I know #KZfaq has helped us both so many times before and saved $$$ as well! It's folks like you who deserves the best! We didn't even know there's a button underneath 😅 😁 Ours doesn't have a plug-in, maybe because we live in an apartment ? Thank you for what you do!!! 🙌

To everyone thats having a weird problem -as long as the switch is off you can gently reach in and feel around -you might just have some small hard objects that fell in the drain hole and are jamming the blades -in my case it was two small screws -your relaxed vibe gave me c0nfidence to stay at it and find the problem :)
