socketing my p28 - capacitor polarity - help asap!
 

Got the stuff yesterday and I want to get it done tonight - thanks ONYX. I never doubted you man. ;) ;D

Seems like I remember hearing that the poloarity on the capacitors makes a difference. Which way should the caps go in the ecu?

sorry about that frogot some got the poliarity caps. they work great BTW, if you look athte other caps on the board just follow the polarity. they use the same polarity for everythig on the board. give me a sec and ill try to get a good pict

It is hard to tell on these which side is neg and which is pos. I've got the white printing facing toward the zif socket on c52, and away from the zif on c51. That is the same as the printing on all of the other caps, so I am just guessing here. Is that right?

the blue is the ZIF in that pict. C52 is away from teh ZIF (the white anyway) and teh C51 is tword teh ZIF (the white part that is)

i was so caught up into soldering i forgot about polarity on the caps... works fine, so i must have gotten lucky twice!
