Get you Sig out. You want to make sure it's dead!
Seriously, check Fixya or one of the other DIY sites. They helped me a number of times. |

12 years? The motor is probably toast. If you confirmed power is going to it which it sounds like it is, then the only thing I can think of would be to pull it out and test the motor on a bench. Probably easier to just go get a new one.

Probably dead. Get a newer, larger unit you will thank yourself. My house came equipped w/ the lowest hp Badger, and while it ground stuff up it did it poorly and the pipe would clog. I upgraded to a larger model and it is like night and day. It grinds fast and with less noise. It can eat Chix bones, do a good number on green scrub pads (dont ask)
 and I have yet had a clog due to food particles not being ground up.
Installation took 45 minutes. |

Get a broom or something like that and stick the handle down in the sink hole and use the broom handle to manually turn the grinders. Make sure its off when you do it. |

I had this issue this week. Wife ran a plastic spook through it and jammed it up. If it turns freely from the bottom, but won't run.....Dead. |

I checked Amazon while I was there and found the Waste King L8000 for $133.74 delivered. I opted for next day delivery and they included that for free. So, I have the 1 HP Waste King being delivered today. Lifetime warranty. Boom. Waste King L-8000 |

Mine died, 2 minutes on the phone, and a day or two later the local appliance shop was out to replace it. |
