How do you repair your garbage disposal The motor just hums It will not spin?
It probably just has something jammed in it. In the center of the motor on the bottom, there is a place for a hex key so that you can turn the motor by hand. A tool was supplied with the disposal and may be under the sink somewhere. Second better option. Use a wooden broom handle in the top to unjam it. Use the opening of the disposal as the pivot point and pry the blades around to dislodge whatever is stuck in it. It may be that the disposal is old enough that the motor has rusted. In which case it needs to be replaced.
A screw is stuck in your garbage disposal?
There should be a hole on the bottom of the disposal unit that an Allen wrench fits into. They are the ones that look like the letter "L". Insert the Allen wrench into the disposal unit and work back and forth until the motor breaks free. Then with a flashlight and patience you will need to fish the screw out.

The grinder, or garbage disposal, may be broken for a number of reasons. If you are using it correctly and cutting items small enough for the grinder to handle before placing placing them down the drain, and using water while you run the disposal, there shouldn't be a problem.

Why does your garbage disposal breaker keep throwing?
There are only two conditions that cause a breaker to trip. An overload condition of the connected load is one cause. To cause an overload condition on a breaker that supplies a garbage disposal, the motor in the unit would have to be jammed. Turn the breaker off and see if you can turn the blades in the unit. This might have to be done from the under side, look for the motors cooling fan on the bottom of the motor and see if you can turn it. If the breaker trips instantaneously when the unit is turned on, then there could be a wire grounding in the motor junction box. Same scenario, turn the breaker off, open the junction box and look for wiring problem. Use your power of smell, it is a fine diagnostic tool when it comes to burnt electrical equipment.
