Known Issues

Symptom or Problem Encountered

• Most of 1000 µF capacitors were measured for its capacitance. While they weren't leaking or bulging very much, the capacitance values were nearly doubled (around 1800 µF), which was higher than from the allowed tolerances. Such capacitors should be replaced to avoid any potential damage.
