Brand New Kenmore Sink Disposal #60581 Not Working.
I bought a sink and kenmore disposal #60581 about a year ago. Now that i can afford to remodel my kitchen and install my new sink and disposal, i find my disposal is not working. It just hums. I can't return it because its been too long. This disposal is brand new. Is there somewhere I can take it to get it checked out?? Or what more can I do to try and fix it myself? I already tried the reset button, using the tool to loosen up blades, and that didn't work. It still hums.
