Re: Help with a Strange Resistor please!
yeah, i have ordered another one. i just checked the resistor next to it, and its dead too! same kind of resistor but 0.33Ohms. i did recap this board recently but i capped it like for like, and i spent extra money on nichicon caps. annoying!
thanks for help and feedback folks, very much appreciated!

Re: Help with a Strange Resistor please!
im reading forums where people are having the same issue and they are saying its not a 5 band, but a 4 band with the 5th just being a tolerance band. that would make it 0.24 Ohms... it does marry up with the colour calculators though im not 100%...

Re: Help with a Strange Resistor please!
cheers, ill have a read at this. yeah i tested it with my multimeter but its totally burst. there are actually charred burns on the other side of it not in that pic, so i cant get a reading. frustrating!

Re: Help with a Strange Resistor please!
wait - your saying white is first? ahhh.. let me rewind...
so if white is my first, then gold would be second, and again there is no gold selection for those calculators!

Re: Help with a Strange Resistor please!
cheers sam, but thats what i was saying - i have went to 4 pages like that with colour calculators, and if you actually try and punch in the colours from that resistor they dont match up. ie, its a 5 band and when you get to the Tolerance or last band the colour isnt available. the one in my hand there is white'ish but there is no white for tolerance. also - band 3 the closest you can select is Grey, but in reality it looks very much like silver!?
not sure if im making this any clearer or worse!
thanks

Help with a Strange Resistor please!
Wonder if anyone can help me. im just looking to read the value of this resistor that popped on a board. thing is, no matter what calculator i do online the colours dont seem to match?! I get Red, yellow, (nearest i can do now is grey though it looks silver) Gold, Then the last colour is white? white doesnt exist in the last code for tolerance? anyone able to offer an insight please? pic attached!
many thanks to anyone that offers some help in advance!...

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here
Just posting to get some restrictions removed. From scotland, worked on electronics stuff for years. saved myself a fortune in repair work, and also found myself owning things i otherwise couldnt afford purely by buying broken and repairing. I enjoy taking things apart, and learning how stuff works.
Got a burning question refarding ESR so hopefully i can get posting soon.
cheers
Raulman
