Hello All,
I have just started playing my Jr machine again and noticed that the sound effect when Jr. dies and falls is wrong and a awful buzzing or hissing noise. and it does the same thing when you defeat mario at the end of a level when Kong sr. falls to your safety. I have tried to do research and only came up with that its a tiny capactor does anyone know the name and location of this cap on the board and a link to purchase such item.

Thanks to all inthe KLOV community

Check out this link; perhaps it describes the bad symptoms you are experiencing?

Sounds like your issue may be on there. As for obtaining the cap, you may be able to hunt some down at a local electronics store or either order online from Mouser, Jameco, Bob Roberts, etc.

Just make sure the cap you get has equal to or greater voltage rating than the one you are replacing and the same uF rating.
