I received the replacement caps today. Thanks for all the help on my other thread.
The HiCap has one burnt tantalum cap. It's towards the front of the case and away from the big caps. Any and all tips welcome. Two specific questions.
1) How to determine the polarity of the burnt tantalum cap?
2) Is this the proper way to access the circuit board? Remove the two hex nuts from the bottom of the case and then gently bend up the black U bracket to expose the caps' solder joints on the attached circuit board. This will bend some of the attached wires. Hoping these wires don't also need to be desoldered and then resoldered.
