Any Idea why my garbage disposal gets too hot to touch when running the dishwasher? This is in a relatively new home. We’ve only used the dishwasher a dozen times. It started to stop mid cycle and while checking things out I noticed the garbage disposal is burning hot. You cannot even touch it without burning yourself. The red reset button is tripped and cannot be pushed back in until the disposal cools off. I called the builder to inquire about this and they suggested it is a faulty disposal. So now I’m not sure if I call a plumber to install a new disposal or an electrician to check if something is wired incorrectly. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
