Hi Listers, There are 5 electrolytic caps in the IIci startup circuit, C6, C10, C11, C12, and C13.. Those caps, or a bad power supply, are the most likely cause of startup problems. If there is any sign of cap leakage onto the board then all 5 caps should be replaced. I prefer using chip caps instead of the aluminum can caps because the chip caps are much more reliable and also much more available.
I can get them locally with no minimum buy. If anybody wants to buy them drop me a line offlist. btw, the same caps are used in the SE/30.
