Capacitors are two quite big round tubes with two wires (can be white) – to be honest you can not miss them. They are wired in to the motor outputs.
One sensor can be faulty and if it is giving signal that gate is fully open leaf will not open. You can buy sensors separately (set of two). To test it the best way is to remove motor, remove motor cover and on the top you’ll find small board with terminals for sensors. Put meter across and check if sensors are working properly. There is a little hassle with it but it can be worth doing it. There is also option to rewire system as on Rigel 5 controller you can set opening and closing times instead of opening and closing to reach sensors (if it make sense).
