ACML Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Besides the third leg which seems non-functional with the possible exception of structural stability (restrained in X and Y), is there anything special about the large 10,000 uF cap? Shouldn't any two lead electrolytic at least rated for 16VDC work just fine as a replacement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panther Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 That is correct about the extra leg, it is just for support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlagOMatic Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 I agree with ACML. Why would you want to replace a 40 year old capacitor with a 40 year old capacitor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
