Then the reference cap on the lower right side of the board that feeds the FET transistor and has 'one leg up' (not going through the PCB) : 1x 0.1 uF radial 250V (as that was the only radial type available, lower voltage is OK here).

And : good varnish/paint remover ! As yes, I did remove all varnish from the backside and resoldered all contacts (takes about half an hour).

Didn't tough anything else and brought my 2 control units back to life this way.
thanks !!!

what did you do to remove all the old varnish ??
