Hi,

Working on a Philco 39-116, It has a Aerovox capacitor (450V 16mfd)  next to the mystery control relays.  I'm uncertain just where it connects to, it has what appears to be a yellow wire and a dark green wire coming out of it...I can find similar color coding near the volume switch & motor...the schematic that I have seems to be more confusing than helpful.  The radio works...somewhere along the line the mystery control went missing and some one cut the wires to this capacitor and another capacitor that connects to the inductive antenna,  I've got a mystery control that will be restored also.  Any suggestions?

Mike
