Hi TA,

I'll try to get some pictures up here. I just took them and now I can't find my camera's cord to upload them. I'll search for it and get them up tomorrow, hopefully. I've already checked the wires, even the power cord seems to be pretty good. I need to replace the actual plug of the power cord because it looks like it's little worn where the cord meets the plug.

I'm just going to replace all the caps. That way I know what's what. I have to wait on the filter caps though Icon_sad before I can commence any work. Oh well, I read in someone's post that hobbies aren't races... he, obviously, was not an impatient man.

-Brandon
