Can you add the link to the capacitor kit you bought?

Sadly, mine is going to go in the trash. I can buy an equivalent for less than the repair.

That's a shame, I take it you don't fancy having ago at the repair yourself but if you did it would be worth doing depending on what equipment you have. I bought a capacitor kit from Amazon for £11.99 and that worked out at 2p per capacitor and I had to change 22 from memory. If paying a service centre to do the repair then yes you may as well just buy a working replacement off eBay, the place is full of them. Many thanks for your comment.

@@DARTraderMediaProductions I've got the Wave Stereo, not the clock radio. It's a wonderful unit which after 25 years has developed the hum. Repair shop is my only option. Going to hurt to toss it.

@@bluelithium9808 That's sad but sometimes that's just the way it is, harder when you've had something for a long time.

Give it a go. There's nothing to lose. The caps are not expensive and if you can fix it, it will be very rewarding. Hopefully, you've still got it as 5 months have passed.
