I wonder if the heat from de-soldering the caps "jolted" them back to life for a moment 
I should check and see how smooth the output is from the pot in the underhood servo.

I was thinking about your problem this morning. I was wondering exactly the same thing - if the heat jolt did it. Can you keep the board out for a couple of weeks and then test the caps again? Also, I think checking the servo makes sense, though I honestly suspect it is more likely the board.
You could always replace the caps anyway - they are cheap, and you already have the box out. It's a low cost, low risk strategy. Put the board back in, reinstall the box (using a longer bolt, so it is easier to swap it in and out if the problem isn't solved), and test. My caps were less than $6, shipping included, and a DOUBLE set (i.e. I have two spares of each floating around)
