CodeFox – When you say ‘negative bias capacitor’ I hope you aren’t saying that one of my capacitors is in backwards? If so, there is only one (+/-) electrolytic capacitor in this set, and that is the one that (in earlier post # 6 which has a video) DKinYORKpa and Ron told me was in backwards so I switched it to make the (+) positive side hooked to the Chassis. I didn’t check any voltages though, I just switched it.
How do I tell if that (+/-) electrolytic cap is hooked up correctly? How do I measure the direction of flow (which is what B- is correct??) I would assume that it’s as simple as reversing where I hook up the black and red multimeter clips?
