Why Capacitors go bad
As you can see capacitors are just insulated very thin aluminum wrapped in a roll. I have found that when they short the plastic between the wraps kind of non insulates and throws the capacitance off. When they open usually the spring washer looses tension so it will no longer makes contact. Hope it helps.
