Good online source for electronic components

[desertt5]

Looking to repair the fuel injection control module in my Excursion. Loks like the place to start is with the 330uf 63V caps. There are 8 of them.

Anyone have an online source they noramlly use with good results?

I venture a guess that you desire to repair at the component level. As such, and presuming you have capabilities to remove and replace, I concur, Mouser and Digikey are the two go to's. I use both on a well more than regular basis. Be patient with the shipping to save (that is unless you have a purpose, don't ship next day or two day). Also, shipping will eat you alive with small orders. Thus I would recommend you order anything else you may need to get cost benefit of a single shipment.

I've no idea as to your electronic experience, so please do not be offended with the following. For electrolytics, it sounds like you have been able to identify the size. Make sure you also identify the voltage rating as well. Also, take measurements of (capacitor height, diameter, and lead spacing). Furthermore, keep in mind that your application is automotive. Thus temperature range is important. Most times this is not a problem, but make sure that the capacitor you select is rated for at least -40C to +105C (preferably +125C). Match it up and buy based on these (and of course capacitance). Additionally, electrolytics are polarised. In simple terms, make sure you replace with the correct orientation. Take a picture if you need and use it as a reference.

As always, feel free to post pics and further questions. Especially if you may need assistance with identification/selection from Digikey/Mouser.
