Mosy likely the shredder is jamed try to push a iece of cardboard through to see if the wheels and gears rotate while trying to run it.
otherwise it is likely bad gears from overloading
Most models: 1) unplug, 2) put something down to collect paper bits, 3) lift up the shredder top unit off the bin, 4) empty the bin, 5) try and pull out any paper from the shredder top using tweezers - first remove paper that has not fed through by pulling it back out.
Often if the bin is overfull the shredder gets clogged and won't work or beeps. When unplugged, you have to carefully remove all the bits of paper from the teeth to unjam the two rows of teeth. Remedy is to frequently empty the bin.
You will first need to unplug your shredder. On either side on the shredder head, there are grooves. These are finger grooves. Place your fingers inside the finger grooves and lift up. This will remove the shredder head from the waste basket. Simply empty the waste basket, replace the shredder head and plug back in.
There is a sensor at the back, you can only see a small slot with a little piece of metal, the actuator, that when the top section, the shredder, is in its rigt place in contact with the box will function.
GOOD LUCK.
