Well. I took up one of the capacitors and the label says the following: HCGFA 1800 MFD 450 VDC SURGE 500 VDC POSITIVE +
Here is an ebay link that shows the actual capacitor that I have. http://www.ebay.es/itm/HCGFA-Capacitor-1800-MFD-450-VDC-Surge-500-VDC-Used-/120838813902 There are several models on Digikey that have the same capacitance and voltage ratings, but I don't know if theres anything else to check. Visually inspecting the caps, they look ok, they don't seem to be swollen or anything, but I guess that doesn't tell anything. Do you have any advices? Thanks as always!
