Revisiting the safety cap, C100A&B should be replaced with Y safety capacitors. This is a line filter intended to reduce noise on the power line. C104A&B are electrolytic capacitors and should be replaced with similar value aluminum electrolytic capacitors. Be aware that the negative side of the electrolytics may not be grounded to the chassis.
