Mates bread maker stopped working so I had a look inside and saw this burned resistor.
I’m guessing the heat changed the colors a bit so wondering if anyone has experience in reading cooked resistor values.
I removed it from the PCB and measured it at 403 Ohms.
Thanks for any help.
The case is basically fully metal, just a bit of plastic inside for mounting the PCB to and a few other bits of plastic outside. Plus there is a temperature fuse in the case also.
From the resistor size (11.5 x 4.5mm) I think it would have been a 2W resistor when comparing to sizes on Digikey. I made a 500 Ohm 2W resistor from 8 1/4W 1K resistors then put a larger resistor in parallel to that to bring it down, measured it to 489 Ohms.
I’m going to run it a few times then open it up again to see if there is any new damage to the board before returning it.
Four loafs of bread later with no issues, opened it up and everything looks fine :)
