There is a lever inside the shredder that is connected to a micro switch that detects the paper. Its usually located in the center of the opening where you insert the paper. This switch will make a very slight click if you turn the shredder off and insert a sheet of paper at the opening. If you can hear it click and it still doesn't work the motor could be defective.
