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.
Only thing I can think of, maybe it's a bleeder resistor for that cap, and it failed by some kind of internal short which reduced its resistance (and increased its heat dissipation hence the blackened board)? But fails-short is an unusual failure mode for a resistor and 1 GΩ is pretty high even for a bleeder, so maybe we're misreading something.
It got really hot and the colours changed.
Yeah, I think you're right.
