    I had such good luck using this forum to figure out the problems my E85 was having. And then giving me the confidence to dive into it with the upgrade capacitors in hand.

    The two normally suspect caps were both swollen and leaking.

    And a close inspection of all the machine's componets let me discover another swollen, leaking capacitor at position 3031 on the main board. Has anyone seen this before? Are there instructions to look at to make sure I don't mess anything up getting the big board out?

    This will be the first of two units I have to fix. The other is at work. We also have a E95H there and it has never had an issue (so far).

    Thanks all!
