Recapping a ADCOM GTP500II. Capacitor C308 doesn't have a negative side marking. Maybe it doesn't matter for this one? Any help appreciated.
Googling the above phrase, you can get a service manual. In it, it lists C308 as some bizarre number, while all the other caps are normally described, like "10uf 35V". I took a quick look, but couldnt find C308 in the...extensive circuitry. That's your job; find it and show us the part of the schematic therein. Then you'll get a good answer/
Maybe it is a non-polar electrolytic. (Also called bi-polar by Nichicon and others)
The schematic is here. https://manualmachine.com/adcom/gtp500ii/3246909-service-manual/
I just did find it and like someone posted, it was impossible to read! I have 63 year old eyes. Ill check this newer one I just found (above). I attached a clip of the description. I think it is a non-polarized one as someone mentioned but I rarely do this and thought you experts might help an old guy out.

The downloads are impossible to read. I dont see a marking for the neg side on the PCB like all the others,
I did that way before I came here...I cant read it but since many of you have more experience that I I thought maybe you have a way to tell. Since its connected to a Jumper, my GUESS is that's the neg side, But as I said I rarely do this type of work.
Lol…good. Yes thanks. Which site did u download from? Mine aren’t that clear. Anyway, that’s simple, to translate so u can do a find? No worries if not.
