DIY & Home Improvement

I don't have the knowledge of each manufacturer's layout. When mine went out, the capacitor was not on the circuit board, but was attached by a metal band, with leads that plugged in to the circuit board. Given that the capacitor might be considered a replaceable item, my guess is that would be sound design, but then there's more money to be made selling complete boards. If you know what you're doing, you can replace it on the board, or mount it in a handy spot and solder leads to the capacitor and board.

Good luck.
