The "caps" are those can looking things that that may have a blue colored plastic cover on it. They have 2 leads that attach to the circut board. Unsolder them and pull the cap up and out. Look it the value (it may say 4700uF) that stands for microfarad which is a measure or capacitance. I think that I saw a recap kit for S2000 power supplies, the kit will have all of the caps that you need and just change them out one - by- one. I don't remember where the link was but just search it. Hope that helps.

Dont forget to pay attention to the polarity of the caps when you take the old ones out.

Be sure to put the new ones with the polarity correct or you will have smoke.

In other words the way it comes out is the way it goes back
