    Hi Paul. 9 times out of 10 it`ll be the motor capacitor that has failed ( common failure point) – the cylindrical shaped component with a couple of wires going to it attached to the motor. From memory, though it will be written on the component, it is a 10uf capacitor. W/Knight original spares probably all gone as company closed down and the name taken over by Turkish company – usual UK self destruction. All you will most likely need is a new capacitor so just check your capacitor to check the uF and search for a good quality one via Ebay should cost you 12 quidish – the cheap Chinese ones are not very good so avoid those! You should only need to remove the rear bottom part of the back cover and screws and the vent pipe`s 2 screws. Obviously POWER OFF and leave for 30 mins to allow the capacitor to discharge should you have tried it just before going to disassemble the machine just in case!.
    Could also be the belt frayed or nuked drum support but both doubtful.
