Capacitor

.
That looks to be a capacitor (might be called a condenser in Europe), probably for the motor? They can usually be tested fairly easily to see if they're defective or not:

where to find one ?

That would depend on where you are located. If in the UK, you could try contacting this company (although I have no personal experience or knowledge of them) with your model number to see if they can help.

BTW. Bendix is an Electrolux brand.

You could also try contacting a local Electrolux/Bendix/Zanussi dealer to ask for a recommendation or if they can help.
