resistor cards value (in ohms)

[bal]

does anyone know the ohms value for the resistor in the blower motor card

or could someone do me a huge favour and have a look please

instead of buying a new card im just going to replace the actual resistor

thanks for anyhelp

edit : my k11 is 1997

would be good to know, if we don't find out I'll test mine asap

Good idea Bal, is the resistor in the little bump at the top of the card ?

 

[goldstar0011]

It is

cba taking mine out

what are the colour bands on it?

 

[goldstar0011]

can't tell when it's blown

 

[Alienfish360]

Should be able to see a bit of them

 

[sonic]

no you can't, it just looks like a silver grey blob of solder.

 

[bal]

there was no chance of seeing the colours on mine
it was just a small piece of ash
and we need all of the colours not just some of them

resistor colour code :

anybody got it?

It's not a normal resistor........

Basically!

 

[bal]

dammit, this complicates matters

so what kind of resistor is it? peter?

edit : it appears to me that the "card" part is acting as a heat sink for the heat which is generated by the resistor.
is this not the case?

out of silly curiousity, anybody tried replacing it with a solid link?

wouldnt that have the same effect as having the blower on number 4..i.e no resistance? except all positions would blow as number 4...i think?
