My 2 year old InSinkErator garbage disposer stopped working. No
spinning, grinding, no sound at all. I checked the voltage in the
outlet it is connected to and it is OK. What can be a problem and what
I should be looking at?

Many disposers have a built-in circuit breaker - a small button on the
bottom of the unit.

This breaker can pop if the unit gets jammed. Look for the button and
give it a press. Feel for a click as it resets. If it does, turn on
the disposer. If it pops again, it could be jammed.

Turn off the disposer. Grab the allen wrench that should have come
with the unit and insert it in the hole in the bottom of the unit. Try
to turn the motor in the opposite direction of normal spin to free it
up. You might have to turn it in both directions to free it up. I once
got glass jammed in my unit and had to use the wrench to "jar" the
motor back and forth until little by little until it broke up the
glass and became free.

Good luck!
