Mend Creda T620CW Dryer Motor Heating

How can I replace the motor in A Creda condenser t620cw?

The heating comes on but the drum does not rotate. If I manually rotate the drum the fan rotates, if I manually rotate the fan the drum rotates so I think the belt is ok. Can't see how to get to the motor. The dryer is 18 months old but has barely been used , about 3and a half hours per week between October and May. Is there something inherently wrong with these machines?

It is very unusual for this type of motor to be faulty, before condeming the motor. Remove the lid (two screws at rear slide lid off) switch on the dryer then carefully give the drum a push sideways if the drum then rotates as normal then the fault is the capacitor mounted at the side of the motor.
