How can i fix my Simpson Delta 402?

I have one of these machines, not reliably switching to and fro anymore . Off with the control head :
Some years back i had the capacitor replaced - the big round bit.
Today I've swapped the squared off bit with red white yellow black blue wires labelled ( out of sight) electronic forward reversing. Joy !
Probly both chunks need to be in good order.
This machine is pretty old now ....

G'day folks,
I can do my washing again,
My agitator was only going in one direction, for a while, and then stopped altogether.
As I said above, the motor start capacitor lookes a bit suspect.
I replaced it, and all is well.
I could have bought a new motor $200,
I did buy a starting capacitor $20
the feeling of satisfaction, priceless.

Regards,
keith

have u done anything to elimnate faulty components. i have a similar problem, as well as not spinning dry. both functions are driven by the same motor. i replaced the motor , still the same problem. If i spin the motot to help it to start it spin dries ok. the starting capacitor looks a bit sus, so I will replace that. the only thing left will be some sort of sealed unit, that controls the electronics. I'll up date this tomorrow regards keith.
