    Funai LC401EM2F - Burnt Resistor, How To Identify Replacement?

    Just picked up a Funai LC401EM2F that, due to a lightning strike, won't turn on. I'd like to start off replacing the resistor that apparently is burnt (see pics) but I've never identified a resistor before. Online resistor calculators tell me it's a 1 OHM resistor 5%. Is this right?

    Also, when replacing resistors in general, is it okay to use higher wattage resistors? For example, if something calls for a 1/4 watt resistor, can I put a 1W in there instead?

    Thanks in advance.

    It looks like a 1 or 2 watt resistor.
    I'd use a 2 watt resistor.

    Red black gold gold is 2 ohm.

    Looks like you'll have to repair the track, and also I doubt the resistor is the only problem. Check that diode for short and all surrounding parts.

      The resistor R1201 black/brown/gold/silver is 1 ohm 2W 10%.

        Man, that is really weird. The picture shows silver when its not, at least not to me. Maybe I'm wrong. See attached.

          Picture isn't brilliant but if it's

          Brown black gold gold the its 1ohm 5% 2 watt.

            I took the resistor in question out of circuit and it measured 1.1 Ohms...seems alright to me.

            I'd like to test the diodes surrounding it now. Do they need to be tested out of circuit?
