3rd Brake Light resistor HELP !
#1
whats up fellas, my 3rd brake light is out so i took it apart and noticed the resistor is broken off of the led board and missing. Id like to solder a another one in there instead of buy a whole new assembly.
does anyone know the resistor size to get for it ?
(2002 blazer ls 4wd 4dr) if any of this matters lol
thanks guys !!

My diag says 510ohm
green, brown, brown
that's not a common resistance IIRC.. common outliers are 470
yellow, violet, brown
and 560.
green, blue, brown
Any of which would need minimum power rating {heat dissipation} of 1/2 watt. Suggest 1 watt if space avail
- I had to look all those up.. was a time I could do all that in my head.

Yeah, thats what mine is as well 510 ohm
Green brown Brown Gold.
if you cant find that one, then just run 2 in series and get as close as you can give or take a little shouldn't matter.
