Help identifying a capacitor and substitute [picture]

[Petes21]

Can somebody help me to identify this capacitor, looks like 47.27 or 47.2J?

Can you tell me what would be a substitute for it?

These are called film capacitors.

Looks like only 472 is written on them. If only 472 is written then the value of capacitance is 47 * 10^2 pF = 4700 pF.

"474K is 470,000 pf or 470 nf or .47 uF
223J is 22,000pf or 22nF or .022uF"

Can you post why you want to substitute it with other capacitor?

It is 472J
472 means 4700pF = 4.7nF

For example 474J
474 means 470000pF = 0.47uF

J means capacitance tolerance

Capacitance tolerance: +/- 5% (J), + /- 10% (K), +/- 20% (M)

Ok guys, I'll go with the 472J so I'll get a 4.7nF.

I didn't knew if it needed to be replaced because I just couldn't read those values, now I tested it and says 0.032nf so I'm sure it lost its capacitance. By the way it's for a CCFL light, it's the cap near the tube that usually fails.
