    Never needed to replace any capacitor on these models, but there is always a possibility of some caps failing.
    Generally speaking, high W&F is caused by mechanical problems in the vast majority of situations.
    Hence why I usually won't even suspect the servo unless I'm sure the mechanism is working flawlessly.

    What brand are the caps ?
