You'll be able to see it once you open it with that pic.
The resistor is marked either 6082 or 6083... Not sure which... but i think 3.

Edit: the board should pull out easy too... there's like 8 screws, IIRC, and four of them go through components on the board.

Lmao. It's not really that hard if you know how to solder. I used a regular heat iron, and regular solder... and it went without a hitch...

that's a good idea if you have them available. Grab a Exacto if you can, it'll be great for sliding under the old one while you remove it.

I just had some old radios and cd changers laying around that I broke apart.....then played with some radio shack resistors......only thing I have going against me is that I am doing it at the kitchen table and the wife is home today...I should have kicked the heater on this morning in the garage

It'll only take a few minutes once you're to the "nervous" part.
