I put a load into my above model tumble dryer only to find it gave out a humming noise with no spin.

Took the load back out and switched it on empty and it just about started, i put a few items of clothing back in and it ran but it certainly wasn't happy.

Does anyone have any ideas on what this could be?

Is it a cheapish fix or does it go to the tip?

Any advice on this would be a great help.

Thankyou.

take lid off,undo and remove the righthand side panel as you look from the front.you will see the motor and mounted to the front plastic housing a capacitor.this it probably the faulty part that needs replacing.under £20.straight forward swop out and connect.easy diy job.
