I have a Polo that gave up on me a while back that I started looking into. I found a badly burnt resistor (R177) that I am trying to figure out what it should be replaced with. Because it is burnt, it is a bit difficult to see the exact colors but the closest I got was that it resembled 10 ohms, 5%. Measuring it out of circuit gives me something like 2 ohms. Looking at the parts list though, it seems as if it is supposed to be 1 ohm metal film. From what I can see when I look at the burnt markings, that does not quite add up.
From the manual:
R177: "RES. STARTO. MET. 1E, 2%, 1/2W" (i.e. 1 ohm)
So, anyone knows if R177 should be a 1 ohm or 10 ohm? I found some posts indicating that R177 has been known to cause problems.
