    Component identification - weird resistor

    Is this really a 540 Ohm resistor? Why is there a completely different share of green printed on it? Like olive green of sort. Am I reading this wrong? Seems wrong for it's application. It is on power supply board input.

    Re: Component identification - weird resistor

    Looks like 150kΩ post a picture of the board, Is the location marked as R** or L**

      It is R801 so clearly marked as a resistor.

        Re: Component identification - weird resistor

        I think it is across the a/c line or to ground, I suspect it is 150k. Is it in a tv? Post a picture of the whole board

          Yep, traced the mains input and it is across parallel to a MOV. How come if it's 150k it does not match the color bands whatsoever? 150k would be "brown green black orange brown" right? This one is clearly "black green(?) yellow brown green" Which adds up to 540 Ohm.

            What does it measure on your ohm meter? or it could be read the other way 51.4MΩ 1%

              Yes this is a Toshiba TV.

                510kOhm right now, the leg fell off. Before it was showing high megaohms so its a little burned.

                  It is a 510k 1/2watt will not effect the power supply's operation.

                    R809 is in series with that spark gap, this is R801 and it is in parallel with a MOV and, a big capacitor and the rest of circuit. Seems to be a part of input RC filter.

                        510kOhm it is then. Why they marked that resistor completely wrong is beyond me. Thanks for the help.

                          Re: Component identification - weird resistor

                          If you read the resistor:
                          Green (5) 1st digit
                          Brown(1) 2nd digit
                          Yellow(5) multiplier
                          Green (±0.5%) tolerence
                          Brown (100ppm/°C) temperature coefficient


                          So what is wrong with the tv/power supply?

                            watch your fingers, that resistor is to discharge the polyester caps!

                              Yeah, decoding it like 4 band resistor works. The fact that it has 5 bands is not typical as it does not decode as a 5 band resistor properly.

                              Lightning damage, input protection was scorched. New MOV, two 6.3A fuses and this dreaded resistor and we're up and running again.

                              I thought it's primary function was to form some sort of parallel RC filter at the input, but yeah, it will dissipate charge from that capacitor nicely.

                                Glad to here it's working, Sometimes its hard to tell with these components, like when the first band on a resistor is black (0), I see this all the time

                                  Hi

                                  I am trying to repair an ancient Dell 2209WA Monitor which suddenly shut off with a pop sound. On investigation found that one of the fusible resistors had blown. Further investigation identified multiple components as faulty because of which the fusible resistor blew. Please refer the attached circuit diagram showing the components that were found to be damaged.

                                  1. FR950 - blown fusible resistor - 0.2 Ohm 1W
                                  2. Q950 - shorted Q950 MOSFET - 650V 10A N Channel Mosfet
                                  3. R835 - Blown Resistor - 20KOhm SMD resistor

                                  by mikey5791
                                  Hi to all forum members,

                                  Got this faulty 350 watt atx psu dirt cheap from a local online seller as i am keen to use it as a learning tool to repair faulty power supply.
                                  The faulty part is quite obvious from the burn area near the 16pin KA7500 BD pwm. The fuse is still intact with good continuity.

                                  Upon power on ac, there is 5vdc standby power on cathode of diode D14 and about 10vdc on cathode of diode D13.(This should be the aux power to generate the 12v and 5v rail.)
                                  Initially i replace the two burned resistors near my marked red arrow to 200 ohm resistor...

                                  I have a Dick Smith 37" LCD TV, Model GE6804. I am using it as PC extended monitor only.

                                  Problem is while watching tv, I hear a semi loud click(like a electrical breaker tripping due to overload, just sound like it but no actual electrical overload), then screen is covered with green or pink. I can still see the original picture image but overlayed by green or pink. See attached images. Pink.jpg is what I see, and Normal.jpg is before green or pink screen, What I captured was pink screen, but about 80% of time it's green and 20% of time it's pink.

                                  Then each time...

                                  by MidnightRoller
                                  I am curious if a 0402 resistor could go from 43 ohm to 0. In electronics class and my experience a resistor can degrade and gain resistance all the way up to not being able to conduct at all. I have never heard of a resistor decreasing in resistance and becoming 0 ohm or a dead short… that's not the direction they fail… or so I thought.

                                  I was attempting to remove a wson8 chip on an iMac motherboard and it required a lot of heat, on one side of the chip were 3 0402 resistors that were very close. I popped the chip out unintentionally out of the tweezers and sent those resistors...
