Now that I have thoroughly cleaned out my JVC JA-S55 integrated amplifier, I notice that there are areas around the caps (puddles), especially the smaller ones, were a brown substance covers the board. In some instances, this stuff is into adjacent conductors, with a some showing signs of corrosion.
A few questions on this:
1) Is this residue a conductor?
2) Should I clean it off and if so, with what?
3) The worst ones are the smaller caps on the volume, bass/treble and main board. The big boys in the power section don't show as much of this. Is it likely that I will have to replace all these caps?
Thanks!
