Thanks Will. I couldn't have done it without your help.
Oh no doubt your under chassis is more correct. I didn't bother to open that large square metal cap box. I just soldered the caps on to where they went and to various ground points externally.
Interesting about the 450 volt caps. Do you mean the two can caps on top of the chassis? I didn't notice a 480 volt spike in mine. But that's not to say there isn't one I overlooked. Keep us posted what you find. Good luck with the 38 gauge wire. Practice threading a needle while you wait for it to arrive!
