Not actually acquaint at working on that set except to know that it suffers from the notorious C926 cap problem, and as a rough guide to its location look slightly on the right hand side of the middle of the board and you should see a heat-sink with an IC mounted on it, the capacitor should be located near to that. Its rated at 1000ufd @35volts, and although this is OK its best to try to get one rated at 50volts, also make sure its a radial type you get where the two wires come out at the same side, and not the other version where they are at each end. Note very carefully the polarity position on the board and make sure the new cap is inserted with its + to + on the PCB, as if not done it will blow shortly after switching the set on.
