I actually found your request because I am in the same situation for the 2nd time! I'v had the machine for about 6 years now and the last time it went down was 3 years ago.

Its a component known as STRG6353 and can be purchased from http://www.dalbani.co.uk/catalogue/product_details.php?id=28531

Its fairly easy to change if you know how to use a soldering iron.
