Do I need to put fresh heatsink plaster when I put the new transistor on? I'll have to order it cause I don't have any |

It is not "plaster". It is called heatsink paste or heatsink compound. You should remove the remains from the heatsink and apply a small amount forming a thin layer over all the metal back of the new transistor. When you have removed the old transistor, check if the capacitor still appears shorted. |

I removed the transistor and the ceramic capacitor no longer shows a short |

Is it different from the stuff used for computer CPU's |
