Low Volts on Std Voltage Switch

First, did you reset the button on the unit? Most have an overspeed safety. Second, where did you measure 95 volts - across the switch? Third, are you certain the unit can turn freely - it's not stuck?

If it moves freely, hasn't tripped the reset, and the switch and wiring are OK, then the disposer has apparently died.
