This video helped us understand the relationship between impedance, resistance, and capacitive/inductive reactance. https://youtu.be/xyMH8wKK-Ag

We couldn't find a 0.47 uF cap but we were able to find two 1 uF caps which we connected in series to attain an overall 0.5 uF.  nothing melted so success.
