Two days ago I ran the garbage disposal and heard a metal clinking sound inside but not like a spoon or fork or even a peach pit. I stuck my hand in, felt around, and couldn't feel any foreign object. The little teeth didn't seem jammed.
We ran the dish washer last night and as I washed my hands in the sink, the water backed up a little (this is typical after running the washer--we clear it by running the disposal--is this normal?) so I flipped the disposal on. I hear a low motor hum but nothing moves. Doesn't even attempt to move. Again, I don't feel anything stuck inside and the teeth don't seem jammed up.
I haven't tried using the wrench to see if there's a jam. I don't know where it is, but it's just a standard large hex wrench, right? If it's not jammed, think it's busted?
