Hi to all.
I am currently looking for the value of the resistor which lays on the outside of the 0.1F capacitor, near the heat sink. It has discoloured quite badly from the heat of the cap splitting. The colour bands which are still visible are green, maybe blue followed by either silver or gold. I would be very gratefull if someone could assist me with these repairs, as it seems to be a common fault with these machines.
Many thanks
Shaun

56ohm

More likely 56 ohms, 2 watts.

Any one knows the value of the same resistor for the old Kenwood Chef Km 201 model. Could it be the same?

56 something

Wattage is important - if it's blackened it may still be good - just cooked a little. The capacitor may be defective - if replacing one then you might as well replace both - each costs pennies.
