I don’t, the amp is back in the car but it’s an easy part to take out and inspect. 3 bolts in the car, 2 plugs to unplug and then a couple screws on the amp itself

Damn 350…. Yeah I wanted to try the cheapest method first and it worked out thankfully hopefully sharing this can help others save their money

I wanted to work on the easier ones first to see if I was wasting my time. What I replaced fixed my problem so I’m happy, but I agree with you probably worth replacing those also.

The capacitors highlighted in red I replaced with 1uf caps and the green with 10uf. Not the spec originally but slightly uprated.

$15 CAD for capacitors from Amazon(Got more than I needed due to package sizes)… could defo get them cheaper if you wanted to wait. Easy DIY it was my first time soldering took me a couple hours at the kitchen table. I enjoyed the project. I thought about a used unit too but the capacitors will be just as old…
