OK check the chassis number. Its stamped in ink on the metal part of the chassis. The sets effected were
17EC45, 19EC45 & 25EC45 runs 401 and higher.
17FC45, 19FC45 & 25FC45 all runs.
Often there is a tag on the back saying "4 lead capacitor modified"
if it has it you are OK.
Also EC chassis under run 401 have a similar problem that needs
addressing but not as critical.
Let us know what you got.
