The worm gear that runs it is stripped, Replace the motor.
If it only hums, the motor isn't able to rotate. First disconnect the driveshaft and try to run the motor. If it runs, the pump is bound up/clogged. If the motor continues to hum, the bearing is shot. Repair or replace motor. Good luck.
Motor is locked up unless it is belt driven. In that case the belt can be broken.

If a motor hums but does not start, it could indicate a few potential issues. One common cause is that the motor is jammed or obstructed, preventing it from turning. Another possibility is that the capacitor is faulty or the electrical supply is inadequate, leading to insufficient torque to start the motor. Additionally, a malfunctioning start switch or relay could also be preventing the motor from engaging properly.
It's probaly not latched on to the chain. Check to see if the chain is moving then check the connection to the chain.
If the motor hums but the fan doesn't run, it may indicate a problem with the fan blades being obstructed, a faulty capacitor, or an issue with the motor itself, such as a short circuit. Check for any debris blocking the fan blades and ensure they can spin freely. If the blades are clear, the capacitor may need to be replaced, or the motor might require servicing or replacement. It's advisable to consult a professional technician for a thorough diagnosis and repair.
I would say that either the bearings in the motor are worn out ,so the motor has a hard time turning. Or it may be that one of the motor windings (electric coils) is bad. I would replace the disposer.
The F-body motor is notorious for dying. The replacement costs about $50 from an auto parts store and will probably take an afternoon for a first timer. Remove the door panel and take a drill to open up holes in front of the rivets on the motor. Procede to drill out the old motor then replace it with your new one and screw it in. First you want to get the window up, if you can. If the motor actually hums, then press the button while pulling the window up, if you cannot get it up, then you are going to have to be extra careful not to harm the glass while taking the door apart and replacing the motor.
It is possible to check the resistance of the motor leads compared to a known motor. You can also connect the leads to 120 volts temporarily. If the motor hums and runs slowly or not at all it is a 220 volt motor. If it runs normally, then it is a 120 volt motor. Testing should be done for only a few seconds so if the motor is designed to be run on 220 volts, you don't overheat or damage it on 120 volts.AnswerRead the nameplate information.
