Keng,

I didn’t know that by adding two 16mf caps in series creates one 8mf cap! Still new at this! That makes sense now! My guess is the wire wound resistor got burnt with the 16, so the repair person installed an additional cap to bring the capacitance down to 8 before any further damage occurred. That’s my guess anyway. Thank you so much!
