Garbage Disposal Overload Protector Kit
The overload protector is a bimetallic switch that trips under high thermal loads. If the button physically refuses to stay depressed after a 10-minute cooling period, the internal latching mechanism has likely suffered mechanical failure or heat-induced deformation, preventing the circuit from closing.

Jam-Buster Wrench
A mechanical jam of the flywheel creates high starting torque and subsequent amperage spikes. If the unit remains jammed, the overload protector may trip so rapidly upon reset that it appears to not stay in, as the bimetallic element reacts to the immediate stall current.
