An existing disposer may need replacement
Provide the existing disposer model, switch type and a safely taken under-sink photograph. Keep the assembly connected rather than removing it for measurements. Replacement suitability depends on the sink mounting, outlet, space and controls; a newer or more powerful unit is not automatically a direct substitute for the old one.
Compare this observation: water leaks below the motor unit
Stop using the disposer and keep clear of wet electrical fittings. Describe whether water first appears at the sink mounting, a visible waste joint or beneath the motor body. Do not loosen its mounting or pull the heavy unit down. The leak location helps prepare an assessment of the existing arrangement.
The fitting is behind a furniture panel.
Describe the panel, plinth and visible surroundings. Leave the appliance fitted; photographs and an access description are enough to begin.

Read the identity, not just the badge.
Quote the complete model and serial or service number from a safely visible label. Similar product names can hide different components. If the label is concealed, leave the appliance in place and tell us the model is unknown.

A useful question for the enquiry
Does “an existing disposer may need replacement” establish the failed part?
No. Describe that observation separately from “water leaks below the motor unit”. Explain whether they began together or at different times, and include the fitting detail: the fitting is behind a furniture panel. The inspection can then consider the symptoms and safe access together.
