I think you should provide some more details.

- What kind of garbage disposal is it?

- How old is the unit?

More info will help the community to answer your question.

On the bottom of most disposers, there's a small red button--the reset button. If the button has popped out slightly, the motor overload has gotten too hot. That's usually caused by a jammed disposer that was switched on for too long.

You can reset the overload by pressing in the red button. If the button pops out again when you turn on the unit, the disposer is probably jammed.
