Thanks to everyone for the replies!! I opened the switch housing and found the
blown capacitor!! Hopefully I can just replace that and save $160. However, I
started looking around for it and can't find a replacement anywhere that looks
like it will fit into the same spot in the saw...anyone have any ideas??

You can also 20UF caps with higher voltage ratings (e.g. 450V) that will
work just fine. Typically, you want to at least double the expected
voltage.
