Someone, somewhere posted about replacing a burned out triac on a Neptune control board. Searching the archives didn't help. Does anyone remember who, or more importantly, which triac blew and with what it was replaced?

Thanks!

He'd also better replace that large electoliyc capacitor that sits right beside R11. I've heard some of the electronic guys around here say that's what is the root of the problem. The capacitor is supposed to abosorb the inductive surges from the motor when it changes modes. It is across ground. The capacitor is either below it's stated value, or becomes "leaky" where some current continuously leaks to ground (not just the surges)
