My first real amp repair

I have a Fuchs Four Aces combo that developed an intermittent problem.  Initially, it quit working after playing a couple of songs at a church practice.  No sound, and the lights on the foot switch wouldn't light any more.  After bringing it home, it would usually work for about 10 or 15 seconds after turning it on, and then quit again.

To make a long story short, after several failed attempts, I finally found a capacitor on the circuit board that felt loose. None of the other caps felt loose.  I unsoldered it from the board and found one straight pin, and one bent at a 90 degree angle with a little solder on it.  I was able to bend the pin straight and get it soldered properly back onto the board, and everything started working great again!  This morning I tested it for a couple of hours with no issues.

Lucky?!  Yes!  I sure didn't find that on the first try!  I was persistent because I was convinced it was just a bad connection somewhere.  It saved me the cost of round trip shipping to Fuchs and paying for a repair, because they don't give out schematics and there's nobody that I know of locally that works on them.

I've said it many times, I'd rather be lucky than good!
