        "text": "If your garbage disposal stops working, first check if the reset button (usually red and located on the bottom) has tripped. If it's humming but not grinding, it may have an obstruction. Turn off the power at the breaker, then carefully try to dislodge the object using an Allen wrench in the center hole or tongs. Avoid putting your hand inside. If these steps don't work or if it's making loud, unusual noises, it's best to contact a plumber to diagnose and repair the issue safely.",
