How to release a garbage disposer:
There is a small hole on the bottom of the disposer, right in the center and near the red button you were talking about. Insert a 1/4 inch Allen (hex) wrench (typically supplied with the disposer, can be purchased from most hardware stores) in the hole and move it back and forth until it moves freely. Plug the disposer back in and try it with the water running (you should not use a disposer without water running through it).
Hope this helps. Thank you, this is useful information, I was looking for just what will help me with the blockage.

Thanks for the tip about the broom handle! Fixed it 1-2-3!!

I think its a safe bet you need a new disposer,sounds like the main motor has a bad winding. Check your use and care manual to see if it has an extended warranty.

i tried both the wrench and the broom handle. (about ten times) the blades move but the disposal still hums. the reset switch didn't help. any other suggestions??????

Using the allen wrench to crank the disposal manually worked for me. As I unjammed it a bunch of coffee grinds came out. I think it was the collection of coffee that was the source of the problem.

You can tell when it unjams because it willl move, reset it and go.
