I would recommend replacing all of the caps and inspecting all of the traces around the caps to ensure none have failed due to a leaking cap. After that I would see what you get for error codes and if fail 01/90 remains, get you hands on another spectra (bandsplit doesn't matter) and swap the common boards one at a time (make sure you write the correct codeplug into the radio to ensure that you do not get additional error codes) and see if you have a bad MLM or other common board.
