Do I need a new capacitor?

We have just bought the above switch for our Power Compact 400 and noticed that the existing switch has another little box on it. From reading reviews here it seems to be a capacitor. Do I need to buy a new one or can I use the existing one. The lawnmower just decided not to work when we tried to use it - no fuses blown, nothing else wrong with it. thanks
