I don't hink the cap is your problem. A bulged or curved plastic cover on
the top of the cap is not a failure. If it's the metal can that has split at
the top (vented), fine.

I don’t think it has; when I press down on the plastic cover, it pops down
without much resistance.


We really need a model number to give you any more specific advice.

It’s a KV-20TS30.


That said - the resistor you mention is not a typical Sony failure that I am
aware of.


I suppose not, but I was running on some general tips like in

and

Thanks.
