Nad c-370: Right Channel drops out

I took my NAD to a local repair shop to investigate why the right channel goes out on my amp and they proposed to charge me $420 to install a main amp kit, a filter set plus labor. Needless to say, I paid them their $70 "diagnostic fee" and brought the Nad home, unrepaired.

I am a bit baffled because I can get the right channel to come on if I tinker around with the amp by switching source inputs form CD to Video and so on. I have been reading on the internet about problems with these amps due to capacitors overheating and bugging out. Is there a particular capacitors or group of capacitors that I could replace myslef and get my rig running again?

After cleaning:

Try plugging the CD player into another input.

Check the jumpers just in case and if you are using the level controlled pre outs on the back, try the fixed ones instead.

Consider using a sheltered equipment rack and some routine cleaning maintenance to keep out the smoke and pet hair.
