It may help. It depends on where the heat is coming from. If it's ripple current caused by the motor, then yes. If it's simply the losses from EFT switching/rdson values, then not so much. That said, it won't hurt to add a coupe/few. The worst that'll happen is it doesn't help.

not sure that i can figure out where the heat is coming from, but i'll try the caps.
