Fix Grando GOC218 Dryer?

Hi,

I have a Candy Grando GOC218 drum not turning on its own, but will start to turn when pushed along. I have replaced the Relay Start pcb with Candy part 91201247 but still not turning!! Any bright spark's help out there would be greatly appreciated

Thanks Intikab - replacing the capacitor which was attached to the motor worked. I suspected that it was the capacitor originally but not mentioned in any candy parts list.

Bit of nightmare getting to the motor (accessed through removing front and side of dryer)

It's probably the big capacitor on the motor. It give the extra 'push' the motor needs to start turning. usually 7.5 uF or thereabouts
