Hi,

The displays are dead on my DD. I was able to trace back that the +60V line isn't making it to the displays and is being cut off at this resistor. It is very hot to the touch and the color bands are burnt and difficult to read. I looked through the DD manual and as far as I can tell, this resistor isn't shown in the schematics. Can anyone with a DD or other System 80a game take a look at this resistor and confirm what the value is?

Thanks

If anyone else runs into this problem, the resistor turned out to be a 200ohm red-black-brown. Based on some advice from RGP, I went with a higher wattage, (2 watt), that should help prevent more burning, (fingers crossed)
