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.

Sounds like science! Let us know what happens.

Four loafs of bread later with no issues, opened it up and everything looks fine :)

Excellent news!

The science gets done, and we bake a fresh bun, for the people who are still alive!
