Outdoor electrics is great - but watch out for the bird shit.
Quick trip to J-Car to buy 2x 25v 1000uF capacitors.

2x new capacitors installed in less than 5 minutes - a little bit bigger but are jiggy.

Free 40" LCD TV ($1200 when new four years ago) fixed for $2.60
The lady I got it off was quoted $200 for the same repair.
