I've counted them, and if I could get hold of Count Von Count, I'm sure he would agree - the LC 475 has eleven little capacitors (ah ah ah! thunderclap!)...
As of 2026, they're all leaking. And unless your board somehow won the capacitor lottery during manufacturing, your logic board is no different.
My small stack of LC 475 logic boards is down to one that need to be recapped. Let's tackle recapping this last one tonight, and see if I can get the Dealer Upgrade LC 475 chiming again! Or at the very least, get a feel for which of the three boards is repairable, and which may be suitable parts donors.
Will there be any bad traces? Will I melt plastic? Will the board work once I am done? You'll have to watch to find out!

YouTube started having ingest issues while I was doing the Wheel of Regrets! segment. This VOD resumes where Wheel of Regrets! left off in the first attempt: https://youtube.com/live/e2C_R8njKkQ

Adam sent me an Apple ][+ that needs repairs, and COMPUTER is suffering from bad 74LS-series chips. Can I fix both computers using eBay (the place where I buy things I later regret)? Maybe. But the more important question is, Will there be regrets along the way?
Will COMPUTER say COMPUTER again? Will the Apple ][+ say APPLE ][ again? Will all the parts even arrive in time for this stream? Youll have to watch to find out!
