ab1, long time listener, first time caller..
I have an old CM12 which I've bought on eBay (condition was always a little questionable). Anyway, it worked for a few weeks and then stopped.
I opened it up to find the (balancing?) resistor R1 next to the big 0.22uF 273V capacitor to be completely burned out.
I'd like to try and replace it to see if the unit still works.
Does anyone with a multimeter have one of these open by any chance and could measure the resistance of R1 for me?
Based on my limited understanding of electronics, this resistor should be somewhere in the region of 1K Ohms.
Many thanks!
