Either way, sounds like there is a short - not something that could be reset. There is either something inside the disposer, like a faulty motor, or outside (power cord, socket, on/off wall switch) shorting out and tripping the breaker. I wouldn't recommend replacing any parts on this model. Too costly and it's not a good one anyway (sorry :) ). If the source of the short is the disposer itself, get a new one instead. You can get an Insinkerator Badger 5 1/2 hp for about $70-$90. Hope this helps.
