User: Step 3 summary contains "replace 10uF electrolytic capacitors (four units)" but there is no further mention of this (why/where). I've never replaced mine. I suggest that this part of Step 3 is split out into a later step and given further elaboration. Henry: Agreed. A past user was going to help with this section and never did. Basically the caps are C35, C36, C37, C38. One is on the end of the board closest to the IIgs front. One is one the lower edge of the board by the Cache Card connector. And two are on the end of the board closest to the IIgs rear, one near the edge connector, and one near the oscillator.
