Right if its a case of replacing the resistors them im gonna grab a few and try it out ASAP.
Portugal you are the only one to try the mod so far and you seem to have success. I see you are using 2.7k resistors. My resistors values are 2.17, 2.2 and 2.2 respectively.
If 2.7 does the trick I will grab some, ill probably grab some of a slightly higher rating just incase someone gets better results with a rating say above 3.0 ohms.
mong
-EDIT-
This is the info I found at my local electronics store, would these be ok
So I will be picking up three 2k7, three 3k and three 3k3 resistors.A ‘Universal Resistor’ with a superb specification. It may be used as a superior replacement wherever carbon film ¼ W, 1/3W or ½ W are specified since its size is the same as ¼ W types, yet it can be run continuously at 0.6W with ambient temperatures up to 70°C, thanks to the highly even thermal characteristics of the ceramic substrate. It is also a superior replacement to most metal oxide and thick film resistors due to its very tight tolerance, ±1%, and its low temperature coefficient, only 50ppm. Working voltage max: 250V Tolerance: ±1% Power rating: 0·6W at 70°C Temperature coefficient: 50ppm/°C Noise level: Typically 0.01µV/V Dimensions of body: 6·5mm long, 2·5mm diameter Note that to make up ‘odd’ values not stocked, resistor networks may be built and if all the resistors in the network have a 1% tolerance, then the tolerance of the whole network will still be 1% tolerance.
Someone please correct me if this info is wrong
