Just got one of these, but has the original electrolytic caps.
I have the service manual and can see which are electrolytics and of these, which are non polar.
1. What I don't know how to figure out here is if any should be low leakage/low esr caps. Any suggestions which ones or what to look for?
2. There are 2 paper electrolytics. Should I replace these too? If so, with what? PIO?
I haven't been able to locate these on the circuit board yet, but the nice thing is that the circuit board labeled on both sides with the number and polarity for the caps.
edit... found these on the schematic and is on the power switch & switched receptacle on back, not on the board. Still not sure if I should change them though and with what.
3. Some of the items are in bold on in the service manual. Any ideas what this means? Couldn't locate an explanation in the SM.
Here's a shot from above with the box shield that partially covered the 3 selector switch rods removed.
And below
Closeup showing front trace marking detail.
bottom of boards closer up
There's a lot of electrolytics, but all on two board continuous (thus flat I guess) boards accessible on both sides and labeled on both sides, should really speed things up.
Any advice or suggestions appreciated.
