Hey guys, as a pandemic project I have finally gotten around to recapping the Wells Gardner Monitor on my #RevengeFromMars. I have a K7301/K7302 rebuild kit from Arcadeshop.com. I have replaced most of the caps with no problem, but I am down to the final few and I am seeing some discrepancies on what the kit says should be on the board and what is actually on the board. In position C339, the cap kit says it is supposed to be a 100uf 50v. The actual cap on the board is a 470uf 35v (see 3rd pic). Position C809 and C818 the cap kit says are supposed to be 100uf 160v, the actual caps on the board are 220uf at 160v (see 4th pic). Position C389, the cap kit says is supposed to be 330uf 35v, actual cap on the board is 1000uf 35v. (see 5th pic). Finally, the cap kit says there should be a cap at postion C825 and I cant find a C825 on my board.

Just looking for advice if any of you have recapped this board with this kit and run into similar issues. I don't have any wiring diagrams for this monitor, they seem to be very hard to come by, so I don't have a factory document to reference. The caps on the board all appear to be the original factory install.

Thanks for any help you can provide and stay safe!

what is on your monitor chassis is correct and that kit is completely wrong. our kit has 100% everything correct and way higher quality caps so next time check out ours plus we make over 500 different kits for pinball and arcade games.
