Thanks LeeG - my KPL button problem started way before the PLM power issue. The button LED on the KPL does come on when pushed, but the light fixture it is controlling does not change.

Side repair question - I have an 8-button keypadlinc that has one button that doesn't seem to work/generate events. Not sure if its a mechanical issue with the button itself (seems to "click" just fine) or an electronics issue. Any experience would be appreciated!

Success Canadian fixed! Digikey had the caps to me in a day. Thanks folks. I really strugged with keeping the board steady while i fumbled with the soldering iron and braid. I use an extremely cheap clamp (it has a weight, a magifying glass and two articulating clamps) so it was really frustrating to get a good grip. Took me way longer than it should have. What do you guys use for keeping the PCB steady, but also movable, while you work?

My PLM stopped responding today. Ordered the caps today and I'll report back with my results. Thanks for all the fantastic info in this thread.
