Quote:Should be the black terminal on #101 is at chassis ground. Internally it's connected to the + side 10mfd @50v. The outside of the capacitor (metal part) is not at chassis ground but is connect to the hv center tap of the power transformer (B-).


You mean the Silver terminal? Because on mine there's a Red Terminal and a Silver Terminal But no Black Terminal.

And that still doesn't tell me how to run the negative leads of the new capacitors.
