This might not be the modification or it might..

look on the bottom of the PCB and see if there is a wire link added between the negative terminal of capacitor number 531 and the positive terminal of capacitor number 534. This is shown on a sketch of the pcb in the manual, but I'm not sure if this is the fix. If you do connect these two points, just make sure that there is no significant voltage between those points before you do it.
Otherwise, if this is not it, I will have to look inside my unit.

posts crossed with above, I also see the other mods noted, so all worth a try
