I'm working on a 46-1226 Am/Lw/Sw/Phono console. Has anyone else done this beastie? There is a rather large cap that I can not determine its value for replacement. I've consulted the Schematic in the Rider's on Nostalgia Air without much luck.
It's a very large yellow tubular cap with wax coating that's located about dead-center in the middle of the bottom of the chassis. The ends are attached to a large terminal strip and one end goes to one of the electrolytic caps and the other to one of terminals on the volume control pot.
I accidentally scratched off the value while trying to cut through the filthy wax. I thought it said something like 25 - but don't recall and there's nothing on the schematic that makes sense.
Can anyone help? I could take a photo of the cap in location if it would help.
Thanks,
James
