Hi everyone. I'm sorry for the lack of posting it's been kind of busy here.

I took the advice of Electronic M and soldered the capacitors. negatives to the ground. and each lead to their appropriate wires. The 22uf 50volt one to the yellow wire and resistor parallel to ground. and the other 2 10uf 450volt ones to their respective wires. I powered the television and it booted up properly. I didn't leave it on for a long time. Only for about 20 ish seconds, As that was the time it took for the Amazon stick that i have connected through a Some adapters to boot up to the menu.

I'm assuming if i did it wrong there would've been some sort of failure within that 20 seconds of time booting up. There was still a little bit of a hum still but it wasn't as bad. I'm assuming that it might be caused by the RF adapter i'm using being cheap.

Unfortunately with the way it was situated i couldn't reuse the original canister for the electrolytic, I decided to keep it off the chassis. The capacitors are all 'floating' so to speak, They're all soldered appropriately, With very strongly adhesive electrical tape. and heat shrink to ensure the none of the connections or joints are able to touch eachother. or anything else.....

I still have to replace another electrolytic canister which i have to replace. It's certainly much more easier to identify what goes where as there are markings with shapes on them. which describe what is what. which i'll probably change out after the holidays..
