Possible Causes

Failed Evergrind internal overload that will not reset, Broken Evergrind internal wiring, Defective Evergrind motor switch, Open Evergrind stator winding

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF the breaker and disconnect the Evergrind unit.

  • Confirm external power: Test the outlet or junction box with a known-good device or meter to verify power is present.
  • Attempt reset: Firmly press the Evergrind reset button once more. If it does not click or stay engaged, the overload may have failed.
  • Inspect cord and plug: For corded Evergrind models, check for loose blades or damage at the plug.
  • If still dead with confirmed power: Internal components are likely open. Replace the Evergrind disposer.
