Hello Tom. Having gotten the info you needed on capacitors, let's talk about the wiring in the pictures you provided. Some of the insulation is showing signs of hardening, splitting, and de-laminating. Inspect all wiring carefully. Insulation can be repaired by sleeving the wire with heat shrink tubing, or total replacement. If you chose the latter be sure to route new wiring in the chassis exactly as was originally. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
