I took the chassis out to start checking caps, and I'm glad I did. I haven't found any bad or even marginal caps yet, but some weird part on the board broke off.
This part kinda looks like a disc cap. It's situated in the power section, between the fuse and where the degaussing coil plugs in. I noticed that the leads on it looked like they were detaching. When I touched it, the metal disc detached from the leads. I tried to solder the leads back on, and the disc broke in half due to the heat.
It looks like a simple metal disc. My ohmmeter didn't read any significant resistance through it. Could I just solder the two leads together to bridge the connection, or is this some kind of important part?
PS: The metal disc has a number on it: 100- 0/A A170D
