Hello Maciej, That 4700uF/10V capacitor is really hard to remove, it seem to be connected to large planes on both sides, which suck all the heat away. I have a suspicion that it may have leaked from the underside as the area around it is certainly quite dirty in a way that suggest the dirt has stuck to something. Did you manage to remove this part without destroying it and without damaging the board? Regards Rob
