Troubleshooting your garbage disposal. This look at the two most common issues with a garbage disposal are addressed here. First shut off the breaker. Next make sure the disposal switch is in the OFF position. If there is no sound at all when you first noticed a problem push the reset button. If the unit is humming use the allen key that came with the unit and insert it into the bottom of the disposal and turn it left and right if dislodge what ever is making the insides stop spinning.  
The video that you are going to watch is for the absolute beginner.  For the person who has never or rarely does any kind of work like this but wants to try.  This also means that the videos are easy to follow and may seem a little too easy for those looking for more detail.  I made this and other videos with as little editing as possible so they are not flashy at all.  I take a teaching approach and the thumbnail with me standing next to a white board with the How To lesson on it reflects what I remember as a teacher preparing to teach.  Although in my day it was a black board with white chalk.
