Beginner's troubleshooting video. Old-school method of doing things if you do not have much test equipment. I connected two 1 uF electrolytic capacitors back to back (in series) to get a 0.5 uF nonpolarized capacitor. I used an audio generator, but I also could have used music. I didn't use music during this video because of potential copyright problems. You must have one good channel to use this method. The audio test signal was fed into the bad channel.
