I used the tip from E.Lambert ( many thanks) and the motor does kick in. How do I now access the capacitor and replace it?Is htere access to the motor via the base of the machine?

Remove 3 screws on the right side panel at rear of the dryer, lift up the dryer and remove 1 screw holding the side panel to the base panel (rh side looking from front of machine). ease out the side panel from the rear edge and pull rearwards this will unclip the panel from the front edge, you will see the capcitor at the bottom next to the motor held on with 1 nut.
