Mend White Knight WK447 Dryer Start

What is wrong with my white knight Wk447?

When I close the door the drum of my tumble dryer does not start turning. If I open the door and rotate the drum then close the door quickly I can often get it to turn until the timer clicks in to turn it the other way then it stops.

HELP PLEASE

Yes it will be a faulty start capacitor on motor.remove bottom rear panel where vent hose comes out and you will see motor with capacitor on the lefthand side.fit new capacitor the same as the one you remove wire by wire.10min job.held on with 13mm nut
