Hi Winky and welcome to the Phorum.
The terminal you are looking for is the one that is next to the the ground lug on the BC resistor. It should have a wire connected to it and go to a 1 meg ohm resistor.
OR
IF you connect your volt meter - lead to the ground on the BC resistor. Measure the DC voltage either side of the ground lug. One side will have -10volts or so the other one will have +250 or so. The cap connects to the one with the - voltage.
