Hi!
My heated bed has shat itself and blown a SMD resistor. Im a student so I’m not too keen to replace the bed and would rather fix it with another cheap resistor. However, since its blown or disintegrated, I am now unable to read the usually legible white resistance indicator printed on the surface.
Would someone be so kind to reply a picture of theirs, please? or supply the spec? 
Cheers!
Hey there!
Hope this helps 
Please, remember to always unplug and plug heatbed cable with printer turned off.
I recommend that you examine the cable and motherboard for any signs of damage or burn marks as well.
Thanks Marta! You’re an absolute champion.
Great idea. Ill keep all that in mind when I swap it out 
It worked! Ignore my terrible soldering skills please 
Autocalibrating and printing just fine 
Thanks again Marta!
Hi…it is basically silicone encased nichrome wire. u just need to stick it to the bottom of the plate with a liquid silicone gasket and vola instant heated bed… i have 2 such bed running on 220 v… only take care to coat the bed with a insulating material like polymide before putting the wire or in case of short u will have high voltage running through your plate.
