Calling all x595 (diesel 4x4) owners - HELP!

Yup looks to be the same! I need the colors of the bands on the resistor with the brown body on the right side above the larger capacitor. It appears as though they are Orange Orange Gold Gold. Is that right? Thanks a million my friend! BTW I have two brothers serving in the USAF - thanks for your service!

Try these two photos. As I remember it, Blk, B, R, O, Y, G, B, V, G, W, gold 5%, silver 10%, none 20% Am I right?
More on the USAF after we fix your John Deere, thanks!

You are correct, good memory! That OOGG means it's a 3.3 ohm resistor, not a 33 like the other. I had soldered on a 33 to match the other on the board since I had gotten no replies previously - I'll desolder and replace that and let you know the result! Thanks again!

Very glad to help. Let everyone know how you make out with this.
Then we can catch up.

I am pleased to announce that the operation was a complete success and that the x started up right away on the first crank. Here are some photos of old Betsy in pieces if anyone wants to see a naked 595:





Thanks again for the assistance with the photos RCG! That was the last thing holding me up.

EK,
Glad to help and that it all came together. Now get that fine X595 lubed and reassembled. You need to be out in that beautiful Indiana soil and sunshine!
My best to your two Air Force brothers, please tell them: Aim High!
Thank them for their service to our country from a SAC B-52, KC-135 and FB-111A troop!
Keep in touch,
RCG

Will do RCG, I will pass on your message also, thanks much my friend!
