Motor is humming but not turning? I did notice a rubber smell yesterday when I started it and turned if off. I've checked the drain and chopper and found a few olive pits and a small 1.1/4 inch piece of black platics (hard). Any thoughts? BJ
Bits of black plastic are probably the impeller, sounds like something got caught in there and destroyed the impeller. If you are handy then you can buy an impeller kit and fix it, if you are not handy then I would recommend buying a motor and pump assembly and just replace the whole thing as one unit. Impeller kits are less than $40, while the motor and pump kit is more like $130. Hope this helps.

I can't find any sort of obstruction though.
