:D After finding & reading this trash compactor problem I'm happy to report I was able to diagnose the same exact problem with my compactor & it is now working again. Thanks

Glad it's working again but our fix was short lived. We had to replace the part. Part was $60ish and was very simple to replace. Good luck! Monica
