Hi there EP Forum!
I am attempting to test these caps under an HH Scott amp for leakage. I have the Sencore set to "All Other Capacitors".
So far I have used the leakage test on two caps, for one it gives no reading on any voltage selected and just stays on zero. Dropping down the the light to uA, made sure one end was soldered off the board.
The next cap I decided to test for leakage was I assumed rated for 25v DC, however the Sencore meteter continuously blinks past applied 3v. When 3v is selected, only then does it give me some sort of reading that begins to drop.
Only problem is it's not supposed to be a 3v cap, and won't allow me to test any further. Is this of any indication that the Sencore is broken, or just bad caps?
