So i blew out a capacitor on the clock circuit board

[trdrun]

... and was wondering if you guys know where to buy a new one. I have a soldering iron, so I'll be able to put one back on. But I just don't know where's the market for small things like these. Any ideas/suggestion?

I circled the capacitor in the photo below (credits to CO_FlyFisher for the original photo from http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/67508-3rd-gen-dash-clock-fix.html).

And yep... I blew it out in the process of repairing it :brick:

I don't think that is a capacitor

Bump. Couldn't see and post anything with the glitch...

So the capacitor/resistor that blew out, I could see a partial "28" on it. The other black capacitor/resistor has "561" printed on it.

Any ideas where to get the replacement part anyone?

Look online. The number will help as well as the actual size.

That component has three connections. Capacitors have 2 connections. I think its a transistor. I am learning electronics now so I am not positive but when you're seaching for that part number consider it may not be a capacitor.

Good luck.

You are correct sir.
