Heater comes on no problem (so its not the thermal switch).

When I take belt off the motor does not turn until I give it a slight
nudge. If I put the belt back on I still cant get the drum to turn
(probably because I cant turn it fast enough to start the motor up).

Could this be the capacitor? I've heard that this type of motor uses
the capacitor to kick start the motor.



It's either the capacitor itself, the starting switch if present, or a
fault in the motor. I'd check the switch first, if that works then
replace the capacitor, if it still won't start then it's probably the
start winding in the motor.
