Default No brand dishwasher

Some 5 years ago, I purchased a semi integrated dishwasher from B&Q as part
of a total kitchen package. The machine has done sterling service since
then. It has no maker's name nor model number information.

On Sunday I was told that there was a burning smell and the machine didn't
work.

When I looked at it, there was only a faint aroma of shellac. I found a fork
had dropped through the cutlery basket and had impeded the spinner. The
machine takes water, heats and pumps out, but there is nothing but a hum
from the spinner motor. Obviously we have a problem with the motor or its
start capacitor, but I can't see how to get into it. There is a small access
panel at kickboard height where I can see the pump etc but that's all. Do I
need to turn it upside down and remove the bottom perhaps?
