Cap value query, can I use 1000uf instead of 680uf?

Hi, got an LCD tv, its got swollen CapXon caps, and the LCD doesn't light. The caps values are 680uf, rather than spending money, I just wandered if I could temporarily use 100ufs to see if it would fix the tv? I was also hoping to avoid finding a series/parallel mix to find my value. The oltage rating is 25v, this suggests its part of the low voltage section of the board.

Thanks
