I've replaced caps before , it's also economical to replace the whole board. You could tap the bulging cap for extra mileage until you source your parts, I've done that with some success on PCs lol

I sourced the board I needed to fix my 42 from FLEABAY for $25 shipped. The cap was $6, I figured I was taking it apart already I might as well replace the board. I wish you the best
