Please help! C11 + C21 Caps done what is the U2 cap?

[flyby]

I have a starview, I have replaced the the C11 and C21 Cap due to the picture freezing breaking up, the sound is fine and this has not fixed the problem,
I followed scousers step by step "very helpfull pic" the problem is one of the caps had leaked onto the u2 cap, I have been down to maps again but they dont have one.

the other cap 11 says 1000mic@10v which i also would like to add i replaced with a 16v after reading,

on the side of the cap it says U2 CAP KA 431AZ G0A. maplins dont have these so i was wondering if anyone knows where to get one also could I use an alternative cap from maps?

Any help would be appreciated,

Many thanks!.

the u2 is not a cap,its a programmable shunt regulater,the leakage is glue its put there by the makers its most likely ok hope this helps.
