i have one, and i can't seem to find a reset button. it was in the condo when i bought it, and no paperwork, does anyone know if it has one and if so where? also it's jammed/clogged and i can't seem to figure out where the problem is, the blades are grinding, as i put ice cubes in and it ground them up, and i took all the pipes off down below and couldn't see a clog, and the water seems to flow thru, but with the pipes hooked up, it doesn't seem to drain, what should i do? thanks

Its not jammed and you don't need to find a reset button if its grinding ice cubes. It sounds like your pipes plugged after the disposer if water flows out of it with the pipe off but not when you hook the pipe back on.

Take the pipes apart back past the S trap and flush them clean them out real good. If the problem is further back than this you'll need a pipe snake or plumber.
