Pioneer Tuning Fork Service Guide

These PDFs are awesome!

I took a look at the orange e-caps in my Exclusive C3, and the only markings on the caps are "FR."

Based on what I've read elsewhere, I'm assuming these are low leakage caps -- I don't see a parts list in the C3 schematics available online to verify what Pioneer specified. If so, Nichicon KL should work nicely?
 
If anyone cares, I "stole" all the tuning forks and housed them in one google docs folder to make finding the topics and docs overall a bit easier.

It should be set up to share with anyone, if there is a permission problem with accessing it, let me know.

This should be a sticky...or part of a current sticky or something that doesn't get lost in the countless posts and threads that come and go. Thanks for all that work!!! Very cool.
I'm glad to hear that you consider this to be useful.

I plan on occasionally bumping the thread that I created as I add more models to the database. I'm currently planning to attach documents to specific records such as service manuals, owner's manuals and board level component spreadsheets which can also potentially be used as a central repository for capacitor and transistor replacement data.

I have been toying with some similar ideas. I am a dangerous self taught coder with some php/mysql and spreadsheet experience. FWIW, I ran some very end OCR software on a few service manuals and had it kick out the data into an excel spreadsheet. I haven't fooled with it enough to yet make it real use of it, but the results were, when the settings were correct, incredibly accurate and darn manageable. If nailed down, it could make this type of thing substantially less cumbersome.
 
I just stumbled across this thread. Many many thanks to Carve it and Mark The Fixer, et. al.

Much of it is above my head, but folks like me who hang out with those in the know, eventually learn. As the saying goes-if you are the smartest one in the room, you're in the wrong room.
 
Just stumbled across this --- What a goldmine!

AK just flat out ROCKS -- No place finer.

Super Thanks to the contributors from long ago!
