garbage disposal

[american spirit]

dumped some peanut butter down the drain. now it makes a humming sound and no grinding sound. i did the flywheel thing with the allen wrench. it spins manually, but no motion when you turn it on. still humms.

any tips. or just buy another one.

I would say it is junk if it is spinning free and just hums
I just replaced mine and the same thing happened
I bet it wasn't the peanut butter that did it, it was just it's time to die
your lucky to get five years out of one now a days
