I didn't have a problem with him recapping my Amiga 4000 board + A3640 CPU card. A4000 motherboards can be riddled with problems and I didn't expect recapping to fix the problem, but luckily it did. The only issues I had with the board was audio output problems. In my case, I provided detailed instructions (there are silk screen errors on the A3640 board) and my own capacitors. Testing the repairs wasn't an option since Charles doesn't have an Amiga test bench, so I took all liability if the repair didn't work.
Anyway....recaps aren't the magic fix to all old electronics woes. This guy had a heck of a time diagnosing a faulty Amiga 4000 motherboard. Its a LONG 2 part video, but it does give some insight on troubleshooting various problems.
