I had to use my Weller 100/140 watt gun to generate enough heat to get the
capacitors out. Even with flux and SnPb solder it was a chore. The results
were, one was 1.3 ohms and the remaining four measured from 4.7 to 5.0
ohms. I will order the replacements and report back.
Yup, highly likely replacing them will fix the computer.
Be sure to get high-temp, low ESR caps for the replacement.
A lot of pwople are selling totally pedestrian caps as
low-ESR on eBay and such, but they are actually junk,
and not suitable. If the machine works with them, it won't
last long. The proper units are available from Digi-Key
for under $2 each. You just have to scan for the low ESR
rating.
