Hello
Does anyone know what these strange square ceramic capacitors are? They fall apart just by looking at them and have no markings except the colors on the top.
They just look like ordinary radial ceramic capacitors with a wide lead spacing to me.

Wow ! Lots of corrosion.
Hate posting a reply and then have to edit it because it made no sense 😁 First computer was an IBM 3270 workstation with CGA monitor. Stuff: https://archive.org/details/@horun
So no one knows what the capacitance of these capacitors maight be?
Try to measure them using an multimeter. Or just yolo it and put in like 1uF ones ig (or smaller, only as an temporary fix).
Even the cheapest MM's have an option to measure capacitance.
