Power supply electrolytics in a Model 118
#3

Thank you Ron, You confirmed for me that the 10 mfd cap in the power supply is wired backward and you anticipated my next question which was about the 4 unit electrolytic bypass cap (#46). Any suggestions on how to wire in 4 new caps to replace 46? It is on the underside of the chassis. Should I remove it to create more working space? Is there a preferred method for grounding the new caps to the chassis? Thanks in advance for sharing your wealth of expertise. I do not take for granted the considerable time and effort that it has taken for you to acquire that expertise and it is invaluable to those of us who are at the lower end of the learning curve.
