Details
These kits contain all parts necessary to replace the specialized electrolytic through-hole, low ESR, and surface mount capacitors on the original Xbox main board.
Kits include modern polymer replacement caps to replace original 1500uF / 6.3v parts which frequently fail.
Replacements will be all metal construction and will be marked "152", "1500", "63X08 1500" or similar, and may a voltage code "j" rather than 6.3v.
Thomson DVD kits will have a similar silver cap replacing the original 47uF cap.
