    I just fixed my garbage disposal following the instructions on your video! No buzzing at all so I clicked on the "trip switch" first, got some buzzing now which made me use the allen wrench and voilá, problem fixed. Thanks a lot, keep up with the good work, clear and simple videos, easy to follow instructions.

I used the tool really good and then WD40 inside? It’s 2016 bought. Didn’t think the WD40 would hurt it. Thanks again!

This specific wrench usually on top of my garbage disposal and it’s called jam buster wrench and I lost it luckily I found a 1/4” wrench and it fit perfectly inside that hole... phew! I reset that red button 10x but didn’t work and there’s power also. I don’t have garbage disposal plug. Mine is wire connect instead. I was worried to disconnect them.
