WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK FROM ENERGY STORED IN CAPACITORS.

If you are not confortable discharging a capacitor, it is recommend to bring the unit to a professional for repair.

As you can see, a flash capacitor is very large and the risk of shock must be addressed. I discharged it using a screw driver with a plastic handle.

The capacitor may be 330V.
