On an M100 the leaking caps can cause a weak -5V which can lead to a dim LCD. On an M200 there is not a problem with leaking caps and I have noticed no improvement in the LCD by recapping one. My suspicion is that the LCD was never that great. I do wonder if the LCD polarizers have aged poorly.

Are there specific caps to replace (for maybe a dc-dc converter for the display) that are known to make the LCD better ? Or maybe other tips ? PS: I know I'm sending this as html and I apologize. The fact is this is the only supported format in Synology Mailplus.
