  • First the easy garbage disposal fixes, then I troubleshoot the tough electrical problems. I check the disposal, reset, outlet, switch, gfci, breaker, loose wire with plenty of tricks with minimal special tools. Great for homeowner or maintenance technician. Not working? Humming? Stuck? No Power?
    Basics to Advanced Fixes. COMPLETE troubleshooting guide. Not your average garbage disposal how to fix video.
    Welcome to the ultimate in depth maintenance videos. Not satisfied with most common sense advices, you've found the channel to elevate your game! Don't always trust someone who has done it wrong or lazy for years, trust in someone who cares about how it's done and very thorough about it. I love to share all the possible solutions that you might be up against.
    In this video, I will cover in great detail no cost simple fixes most anyone can do in a few minutes and then I will dive into more advanced troubleshooting for when you should call a plumber or electrician, but I will guide you without one.
    So if your garbage disposal is humming, not turning on, no power, intermittent issues, electrical problems and more- I will walk you through step by step to get it working or diagnose if it needs replacement.
    This should save you time and money, and learn a new skill. There are more videos to come.

    Wow, this is the most comprehensive, easy to follow diagnostic video I have seen on this subject (I’ve watched quite a few). Thank you for taking the time to put it together, and for sharing it.

    First damn video that actually helped me realize it kept running because it was plugged into the wrong outlet. Thanks

    This video was so helpful! I thought I was going to either have to buy a new one or put out a lot of money for a plumber. NOPE I fixed it myself (pat on the back) thanks to your helpful video. Oh and having the cat help turn it on, well that was just purrr-fect. 🤣🤣.

    Thanks so much for your video! My garbage disposal was just buzzing, not working. It doesn’t have a reset button, for whatever reason. But I unplugged it, cleaned out some small bits of food from the drain again and again, and finally it’s working again.

    THANK YOU! This worked for me! Humming but not running. Used the allen wrench trick and it loosened a fishbowl rock that had fallen in when my son washed his fishbowl rocks. Feeling proud of myself!

    Great, helpful video! My garbage disposable stopped working a few weeks ago. Thought it was done so I bought a new one and was preparing to install it today but wanted to get as much info as possible before starting the task. Found your CZcams video which saved me the trouble of installing a new disposal. When I flipped the switch on my current disposal, nothing happened. Thought I had pushed the disposal reset button in the past but guess I didn't press it enough to get the "click". After pressing the reset button on the disposal, resetting the GFI and flipping the wall switch, it started humming (making progress, yaaaaay!). Looked in it with a flashlight and saw a few foreign objects in it. After removing a stuck piece of metal, the disposal started working again! Now I can take the new one back!
