Videos like this are why the internet is an amazing thing. I know nothing about plumbing. Instead of paying for a plumber to “fix” or replace it, this video saved me as a new homeowner. Thank you so much!

Hey Adam, I usually don't take the time to write reviews, but I felt this was needed. I just want to say that I'm so glad that you took the time to explain this simple repair process. I was having the exact symptom take you went over in the video and after applying your simple methods, my garbage disposal was fixed in a matter of 5 minutes. It felt so good fixing it myself, and it saved me money as well. Thank you for taking the time to show us how to fix these home appliances ourselves, and save money in the process. Best regards and be blessed into 2023. Mike C.

Adam, it's 2018. Nearly 4 years ago you posted this video that was destined to help me 4 years later. Thanks for your tips! I didn't even watch the whole video. The first 3 tips (checking the breaker, using the wrench, and pressing the reset button) were enough to fix my problem. This may not seem like a big deal but it is. See, my husband's been in hospitals & rehabs for the last year and I've had to take over everything. Even though we have a home warranty it would cost me $100 to call for a repair. As of 10 minutes ago, with Gods help, I solved the problem for nothing! Thank you.

I fixed my disposal! Had left my non-functioning disposal alone after trying to clear blockages manually and then doing the allen wench thing to no effect. Then my sink started backing up (unsurprisingly) and something had to be done. Started on the unclog your sink video, then went this one when i couldn't find an obvious clog. Gave me the courage to take my disposal off! There was a lot of corrosion inside and I basically had to chip around the bottom rim to free the main rotating disk. Now it drains well, the disposal works, and everything is back together with no leaks! I suspect I'll need a new disposal soon due to the corrosion, but short term everything is working. And i have the confidence to install a replacement disposal now! Thanks very much, great video.

Man, you just made my day. Was tossing out some old moldy macaroni from the back of my fridge, and the disposal hummed for a second but never started spinning, then a moment later no sound. Was trying to think what to tell my landlord when I called them up tomorrow and asked them to send a plumber, and googled it to see how expensive a fix was probably going to be (I figured the motor fried on it or something). Half way through your video, and some awkward crawling around under the sink, and it's working fine now. Almost 7 years later and this video is still helping people. Thanks.

Adam thank you so much!!! My husband's salary took a hit during COVID-19 and I had already spent quite a bit of $ fixing my car, and the garage door, so I hesitated fixing the garage disposal until we developed a gnat problem. I have been praying to the LORD about which plumbing company to reach out to, since my elderly mother is with me, right now, and last night I sensed Him say go to KZbin and fix it yourself. I was led to your video and while watching it over and over again while praying, I, with the LORD'S help, fixed my own garbage disposal. Amazing!!!! My husband was shocked and I feel empowered!!! Thank you Adam for sharing your knowledge. Sharing is caring! God bless!!

This was the best tutorial out there to fix a disposal. Other videos only addressed the reset switch and the clean out on the bottom. I had broken pyrex in two different spots which was stopping the wheel inside from turning. Once I cleared the jam which was not easy and got the wheel spinning again, it was working better than it did before. The thorough cleaning may have helped too. Thank you for the in-depth look at troubleshooting a disposal. Saved me $80 and gave me a sense of satisfaction.

Reset & Allen wrench done did it! Who'da'thunk? Mine sputtered to no noise whatsoever. Thought I was done for. Did steps 1 and 2; check power supply is functioning and press reset button. After reset (which it needed!), got the hum sound back, but not the grinding. Step 3 - nudge/nudge with the Allen wrench and got the churning/turning I was after! SOOO happy I didn't have to go beyond Step 3. Lucky, indeed! Thought FOR SURE my unit was just dead - but your simple fix has given it new life. Liked and subscribed! Thanks!

You, sir, are a scholar and a gentleman. Amazing video. Saved me a plumber visit, and made me feel satisfyingly handy after it started working again (turns out my mother dropped her wooden chopsticks in the sink, when she was at my house; nor harm, no foul, now thanks to you). Wish I could like this video 5 more times.

Thank you for the video. I was able to get our disposal working again in short order and did not have to pay an $89 diagnostic fee to an appliance repair center.

Thanks to your video I was confident about diagnosing the problem without a handyman. And it all worked! Trickiest part was rebooking up the the disposal to the sink. It was a balancing act until I got one of my kids to help twist while I held in the right place. Thank you, Adam!

Thank you for this simple-to-follow set of instructions. I was able to clear a terrarium rock from my disposal using a 1/2" allen wrench in about 3 minutes (which included the time required to move stuff out from under the sink).

Great video. Probably the easiest and quickest appliance in the house to switch out! That special wrench you used to turn the motor works great for attaching and removing the disposal. It fits perfectly in the slot and the angle of the wrench is by no accident. It's what it's made for.

Thank you for this! I was dreading having to call in a plumber since I just spent a bundle buying this condo a few months ago and just got hit with my first property tax bill- your video enabled me to fix it myself using a combo of the red button on the bottom and the hand crank to loosen up whatever was caught in the gears, which I suspect was a tiny bit of broken glass

Adam, I used to cringe with fear every time the garbage disposal would hiccup and then take off on an unscheduled vacation. Not any more. Ever since I found your video, I know I’ve got the know-how to get it working again. It’s very empowering to be able to fix things. Before I put on my overalls and start working on it, I always watch the video again and always stop when you begin to explain how to take it apart if the allen wrench doesn't get it working again. Your cool, calm, can-do voice assures me that I’ll be able to get it running again. And I do! Thank You bunches!

THANK YOU SO MUCH for the video! This morning my garbage disposal "died". While my hubby went to the gym, I watched your video, tried the things you suggested (check power, check trip switch, pushed the red button on the bottom) - it started making humming noise, but still not working... Then I jiggled in the hole on the bottom with the wrench - viola, it's working! My hubby will be very proud of me!😁
