Gameboy Color ~ Post-Mod Repairs: Part 2

See Part 1 here:

Problem: Whining noise on the headphone jack in addition to audio. No issues with audio on the system speaker.

Picked up a capacitor kit on eBay:

Based on that seller’s recommendation and some of my own research, swapped out the 100µF C32 capacitor for a 680µF replacement. (The seller was kind enough to provide it in the kit as a replacement after we talked.)

Replaced all 3 caps in the process.

Result: Issue RESOLVED! No more unwanted whining noise when using the audio jack.
