41-300 Bias resistors
#3

Done. Icon_smile

Excess current usually kills resistors. In your case, you are lucky; this set used individual resistors instead of a multi-tapped Candohm.

Looking at the parts list, it calls for 1/2 watt wirewound resistors to replace the three. I think I would use 1 watt units for the 10 and 15 ohm resistors, and 2 watts for the 150 ohm (note it is 150 ohms, not 150K). I suspect the part number for the 150 ohm resistor, 33-115336 (150 ohm, 1/2 watt, wirewound) is a typo since the actual resistor is larger than the other two.

Oh, and to prevent the new ones from failing, make sure there are no B+ to ground shorts or leakage before applying power.
