[QUOTE="POLKAT, post: 1904186, member: 568412"] okie dokie... so the numbers on the caps are: 3300uf which is easy enough. (M) which means 20% tolerance 85 deg. C. which is max operation temp. 80 WV which kinda throws me off but google tells me that means working voltage. If I am understanding this correctly from another sight I was on, its okay to exceed these values on the caps such the capacitance, operating temp and working voltage as long as I dont go under. As I am looking for replacements online I am finding caps that have the right values but are not as physically large and the once I am replacing. Is that a problem? One more question....It looks like there is hot glue globbed around all the components, Is that used just to stabalize the components or what? I appreciate everyones help on this.
