Oh. Totally missed that. I'll check that thread then.

Hmm... Reset is slightly different in STe and ST:

I think you referenced a STe by switching C100 and C102 in the other thread? What to do in the ST then? There are only 2 electrolytic caps in the circuit and they are the same size. So no point there. Or switch C2 and C3?
