DOCUMENTATION:

NOTES:

  • Some replacement caps may have higher voltage ratings than the original parts (e.g. 100uF 10v instead of 100uF 6.3v)
  • For easier installation of SMD-type Audio PCB caps with a soldering iron, the plastic spacer on the bottom of the cap can be clipped off, giving extra space to fit the soldering iron & solder.
  • Product history: 2018-06 - Changed audio PCB caps to surface mount.
  • Unless noted in the description, all Console5 products are fully tested and guaranteed.  Cap kits are made using name brand, high quality, high-temp parts from Nichicon, Panasonic, and other reputable companies.
  • This kit replaces the obsolete main board surface mount with radial lead capacitors. New surface-mount style caps are included for the audio & main boards where originally equipped.

Exactly what I needed

Came with exactly what I needed and would definitely recommend.. my only criticism is that all the capacitors come mixed together I think it would be good if they were at least separated into audio, power and main board bags
