If a disposal becomes stuck and makes a humming noise to tell you it's stuck, and you don't shut it off right away, and all of a sudden the humming noise stops, and the disposal does not turn on anymore after you have unstuck it (by turning the screw in the center of the bottom using a special wrench that came with it and you were lucky not to lose it), chances are the red reset button has popped - as a built-in circuit breaker.
I have already gone through the agony of checking the circuit breakers, electric outlets and the yellow pages once before, and I eventually learned the same simple trick. But not having started this blog back then, I forgot the lesson and had to relearn it the hard way.
