Thanks, Tubologic...I will clean the contacts (but not with abrasives). All electrolytics, including the one you mentioned, have been replaced. Well...all except the three that go in the FP can.
Speaking of which...
The can is open! It was not easy grinding that flange off. Now, without the rubber seal, the terminals do not want to stay in place. The terminals stay in place better if I include the wafer disk that was originally behind the rubber seal. Now to decide whether to glue the two wafers together with epoxy, or let the friction of the newly crimped can (once I reinstall everything) hold it all in place. I do not want to use J-B Weld because it can be conductive...not a good thing with high voltage.
And...not only did I get the FP can open...but I also received my replacement slide switches!
Other than the handles being black instead of reddish brown, these switches are the same as the originals.
