    Clearly you have a hardware problem. This capacitor could fail for one of the following reasons:

    1) Random failure

    2) Installed backwards

    3) Over-voltage.

    Either way, it is connected across the main power supply and may have caused damage. Not possible to say from a distance. You could check for the following voltages:

    1) about 20V (rough) across the replaced cap.

    2) 5V at TP1507

    3) 8V across C1520

    4) 15V across C1514

    If these are not all there there is a big problem. Either way, it may need to come in for sevice.
