How to Find a Burnt Resistor Value by Jestine Yong

For those who are training to become an electronics repairer, here is another good material from Jestine Yong of the LCD Monitor Repair and Electronics Troubleshooting e-books that he created to teach those interested in learning how to repair electronics even with no formal education.

The said material is another e-book containing information on the secret to finding the resistor value of a burnt resistor.

A resistor is an electronic circuit component that is meant to resist the flow of electric current. It has two terminals that electric current needs to pass through. As it moves from one terminal to another, its voltage is reduced. Resistors are designed to do so to maintain a known current within a component of the circuit.

However, sometimes resistors overheat and burn when they fail to dissipate the high temperature caused by the electric current. When this happens, the color code on the resistor is destroyed and hence you are left unable to figure out how to get the resistor value which is important information if you intend to replace it to fix the device it is in.

The resistor value indicates the resistor’s resistance in ohms and is an important value to know. A working resistor’s value can be measured using an ohmmeter which may be function that modern digital multimeters are equipped with. However, if the resistor fails and is burned, you may not be able to obtain its value without the appropriate schematic diagrams. Now, since schematic diagrams do not fall freely from the sky and are usually quite expensive to get, you may find yourself stuck with the particular job you are working on.

Jestine Yong’s How to Find a Burnt Resistor Value will teach you a secret method to find out the value of a damaged and unrecognizable resistor so you will never have to turn down a repair request just because you cannot figure out a single number that will let you know which replacement to get.

Jestine Yong promises that the method he teaches will work on any electronic equipment. This should come in handy for those plasma and LCD TV repair jobs. He also swears that what he teaches will be easy to understand such that you do not even need to get the schematic diagram. It will be a step-by-step detailed instruction complemented by pictures and diagrams. You will not need no complicated equipment like oscilloscopes and other expensive testing equipment.

PlasmaLCDTVRepair.Rankwell.Net – Your Guide to Repairing Flat Screen TVs, Monitors and Displays

This site is dedicated to all those who are looking for information about the problems they are having with their flat screen displays whether they are the LCD or plasma variety (LED TV Repair coming soon!). Since this website’s inception in January of 2009, the flat screen television market has continued to grow with record unit sales being hit and showing to everyone that the age of the CRT TV is truly in its waning years. The surge in sales has been brought about by fierce competition among manufacturers which has led to fantastic drops in prices and although the quality of the flat screens have indeed improved, sooner or later these electronic devices will have problems and will require fixing and repair. This is where this site comes in.

If you are looking for some plasma or LCD TV troubleshooting information because you want to get an idea about how bad the problem may be with your LCD or plasma unit, you will find some useful tips in these pages. Just use the search function above by entering an appropriate term like “Samsung LCD TV Repair” or “Samsung LCD TV Problems” and see if the results apply to your particular problem. If not, you could check out the following highly recommended resources that should be able to help you in your problem: The Plasma and LCD TV Repair Guides both by electronics repair professional and expert Kent Liew. If you are looking to troubleshoot or fix your flat screen LCD monitor then you can check out the LCD Monitor Repair guide by another electronics professional Jestine Yong who also made two other electronics troubleshooting e-books (just do a search for “Jestine Yong”).

If you are an aspiring electronics repairer and is looking to supplement your education with new and updated and practical information, then you should find a lot of relevant leads from the links in this site’s sidebars (the practical information provided by Kent Liew and Jestine Yong should be of great help to your quest). Just browse them and see if you find what you need. Despite this site’s age, it is still a work in progress and I am still continually scouring the web for good information that will help us in troubleshooting and caring for our flat screen televisions and displays. If you have any information that you think may be of use to this site’s readers, please don’t hesitate to email me at admin @ rankwell.net.
