I am currently working on recapping my 56TC-L, while buying my capacitors I ran into a problem. The schematic shows that the radio has a two section 15uF/15uF capacitor, but my actual radio has a three section 20uF/40uF/80uF capacitor. One of the four wires on my three section capacitor has been cut, so I'm assuming that only two of the three sections are connected. So do find a capacitor like mine then use trial and error to find which wire go's unconnected, or do I go with the schematic and find a two section 15uF/15uF capacitor. Please help.
