Hopefully this isn't a dumb question but this resistor is cracked and slightly burnt. I measured it, it's open circuit. It's from my bosch washing machine which is about 12 years old. I think it's brown, black, silver, gold which is 0.1 Ohm (can't be grey, that's 1 giga ohm), but I've found several other photos showing this resistor on this pcb is brown black brown, 100 ohm, and people saying it's 100 ohm as well, and no one saying it's 0.1 ohm. It's 'Ako 731799-06 BSH 9000449412' if you would like search yourself. Could it really be 100 ohm, and the burn slowly chared ring 3 to look grey/silver over time? If it's supposed to be 100 ohm, and I replace it with 0.1, I'm sure it'll blow up...
Next question, since this failure seems to be very common, would it make sense to replace it with a higher power resistor e.g. 5W or 10W?
Thanks.
