    Help identifying components

    Hey guys I'm having a bit of an issue identifying some components on a circuit board and was hoping someone could possibly help me out. The board is from my dash panel in my car and it's died or rather voltage protection has kicked in as it's seeing 24v instead of 12v I've narrowed it down to some resistors mounts on the board through trail and error but can't find the values anywhere to order some replacements the first pic is a group of 5 in the centre and the second pic is a resistor on its own. I say resistor but I'm not 100% sure.

    I realise I'm asking a lot but I really need help and cant think of anything else to try.

    Many thanks in advance

    wondering if they could be colour coded fuses ..

      I’m not sure my friend I thought they were melf resistors. When I applied abit of heat trying the see if there were any dry joints the voltage reading changed. Also I measure resistance with my fluke and got a reading but am unsure if the value given is correct

        cant remember seeing resistors like that before .

            Sweet do you know how I can read the values I'm sorry but I can't seem to see the beginning or end as they look pretty evenly banded.

              it will be the standard resistor color code, the dots are near band 4 or band 6 and are TC (Temperature Coefficient Marking)

                Thanks buddy I’ll look at the ones without the dotted bands and try and make an educated guess

                  What do you mean by "voltage protection has kicked in as it’s seeing 24v instead of 12v" I doubt the resistors are bad

                    Thanks for sharing this chart
