Thanks a lot for the quick response back.  Luckily, I had access to
another such unit with the same resistor in good condition.  It is
exactly the same as the one to it's left.  The resistor is a 15 ohm, 5%
tolerance, 1/2 watt resistor.  I plan on getting it from the local
Radio Shack store and work on it tonight.  Will let you know how it
goes.

Regards.

ha!  if i'd scrolled down...

you'll have to judge the colors for yourself [not sure my monitor is up
to the task]

1/2 watt, judging by an unburnt neighbor.  modern resistors are smaller
for the same wattage than older resistors like this.  as long as they're
not too big to fit, use the largest resistors you can for highest wattage.

one thing not clear from that first link is the % tolerance band color
scheme - in this case 5% [gold].  read starting from the end opposite
the % band.  also, the value has to make sense based on preferred
values.  all resistors use certain values like
http://www.electronics2000.co.uk/data/itemsmr/res_val.htm

if your read value is not on that list, you're reading from the wrong end!

get back if you have any more questions.  color pics help a lot.

sadly not.  unless google quickly spits out the data, suggest a visit to
the junk yard.

if the resistor color codes are still legible, you can read them and buy
another resistor the same value.  if they're toasted, the junkyard is
your best bet.  regarding wattage, size matters.  if the replacement is
the same size, you should be fine.

Hi Folks,

The AT Control Unit on my 1993 Honda Accord has a busted resistor (R41)
in it.  Without any kind of printed circuit diagrams, I am unable to
determine what kind of resistor it is.  Can anyone help with either a
printed circuit diagram or the resistance value?

Thanks.
