Woods 59402 40 amp timer. How do I replace a resistor?

The resistor on the top left of the circuit board is bad. It has a 4-band code but it got hot enough that some of the colors are difficult to be sure of.

A lot of these digital timers have same problem with the L1 and L2 resistor... but careful inspection usually reveals that several other parts also have blackened solder connections, indicating that the entire circuit board is burned.

Scroll down a bit on following ink:

http://waterheatertimer.org/Woods-timers-and-manuals.html

Often people ask for a schematic or for method to identify the resistor, but I have not found any resource from any of the manufacturers.

The resistor you see is a 2.2 ohm 2 watt resistor and is part of the convergence circuitry. I would replace R7011. 7012, 7013, 7014, 7015 & 7016 (all the same value) and the 2 STK392-110 Convergence ICs. This should fix your problem. You can find kits on-line for around $45 with the IC's and resistors together.

Your model doesnt have convergence ICs. You can get the replacement parts and free instructions on how to do the repair at the following link, just click on the contact us link on the lower left hand side of the website and tell them the model number and chassis they respond quickly.

SOURCE: JVC AV56wp74 convergence. Resistor before ICs?

It's recommended to replace all the defective parts first because if you only replace the defective resistor, it might burnt again if the convergence IC is shorted internally. I would also suggest to measure the other low value resistors with multimeter.

Testimonial: "Thanks! I'll just replace everything. I was leaning on starting new anyway. Thanks for the fast response!"

How to Calculate SMD Resistor Code

SMD resistor codes isdifferent from the normal resistor color code (color bands) you had seen in theelectronic circuit boards. Surface mount resistors is very much smaller in than the normal carbon film resistor and because of this the numbers andletters were stamped upon or printed on the top side of the component. Thosenumbers and letters have a meaning and you could use that as information tofind out or calculate the desire resistance values. Sometimes the resistors aredesigned in a very small until we have difficulty to read the code. Byusing a magnifier glass we could easily read the resistor codes. clip_image002.jpg clip_image003.jpgThere are two types ofsurface mount resistors used in an electronic circuit board-the 3-digit and4-digit code SMD. The first two digits represent the two digits in the answer.The third digit represents the number of zero's you must place after the twodigits. Theanswer will be in Ohms. For example: 104 which mean 10 0000 (4 zero's)and the final answer is 100k. Let's calculate the 4 digit SMD, 1182 which mean118 00 (2 zero's) and the final answer is 11.8k.

Component failures on Maytag Neptune Font Load Washers such as the pressure...

Component failures on Maytag Neptune Font Load Washers such as the pressure switch, wax motor, hot and cold water valve solenoids, timer motor, 24 VDC circuit, and the overall electrical buffer circuit have significant effect on the machine control board. Failed resistors on the control board can be used to determine failed washer components. Resistor R9 is associated with the pressure, R11 is for the wax motor, R51 for the hot water valve solenoid, R52 for the timer motor, R53 for the cold water valve solenoid, R143 for the 24 VDC circuit, and R162 for the overall electrical buffer circuit. The TRIAC Q6 is also associated with the wax motor while TRIACS Q3, Q9, and Q17 are for the timer motor, cold water valve solenoid, and hot water valve solenoid respectively. These TRIACS must also be replaced should the corresponding resistors have failed or burned out.

Have Grasslin GM Series 30 amp timer. R1 resistor is burned out. Can you give me the ohm value and wattage for R1 on the pc board.

R1 is probably different for different models of the timer.

Normally if R1 is burned... look carefully and other nearby parts have signs of burning also.
R1 is the first place you see the overheat problem,,, and that's true with the older and newer models in the GM and Woods series timers, including defrost series.
http://waterheatertimer.org/images/Defrost-timer-burned-part.jpg

Contact Intermatic.com and see if they offer a schematic and replacement parts sheet... but I've not seen a parts sheet.

The timer is usually taken out of service and replaced once R1 is burned.
Frequently these timers with burned R1 are sold on ebay after they have been removed from service... simply because the timer looks good or repair seems simple.

Replace timer?

Problem with the terminology and interpreting the circuit

Can you take in-focus photo of wiring diagram shown in timer manual, and attach them to comment?

1) Copy following links:
http://waterheatertimer.org/images/Wire-GM40-timer-600.jpg
http://waterheatertimer.org/Woods-timers-and-manuals.html

2) Right now, dec 2012, there is no product manual for this timer.
Thank you for including the terminal markings.

3) I assume jumpers are for changing voltage?
Please add comment and say what your product manual says about J1 J2 J3 J4 jumpers.

4) Load is water heater
Timer is clock that is set and programmmed to turn switches on-off.
NC is normally closed > when timer is OFF, NC and NC2 terminals are ON
NO is normally open > when timer is OFF, NO and NO2 terminals are OFF
When timer turns ON, then the switching reverses, and NO terminals turn ON, and NC terminals turn OFF.

They ain't diodes because "R" stands for resistor! If you look at them they should have a bands of colour on them. If they are burnt or black they will have failed. Which means you will have to find out what value they are before you can replace them. If the coloured bands are present you can search on-line for a resistor colour code chart. They often have four bands. The last one (4) will be most likely be gold. Bands 1 & 2 are numbers and band 3 is the decimal point place.
The Ohm meter might tell you the value, but it will be affected by them being in circuit.

Will not keep proper time & looses program after one cycle. I came home tonight @ 0030 & even after installing a new battery in & reprogaming it today ,it was showing 0630am when I got home .

You posted under a popular timer sold with GE, Westek, and Utilitec brand names:
Open following link to identify timer for sure.
http://waterheatertimer.org/Woods-timers-and-manuals.html#6-24

If you have different timer, hints below might apply.

1) I test timers, and some arrive defective, and some go bad within a year, but most last a few years.
2) To reset timer, unplug for several minutes, plug back in, and then re-program.
3) Move timer to plug on different circuit breaker and see if same problem occurs.
4) If you have another kind of timer in the house, move it to same plug as problem-timer and see if different timer also looses time.
5) Use circuit analyzer to check if circuit has problem. Circuit problems will affect timer electronics.
6) If timer is clean and new-looking: buy another one from Lowes or Home Depot or Target and then return defective one in new package.

While replacing the caps on on the LCT32HA36 power supply i noticed a corroded solder joint the Z3 diode. When i attempted to re-solder it the trace came off the circuit board and I lost the R3XX surface...

The resistors are color coded.There should be 3 bands which are slightly separate from the 4th band.The 4th band is usually gold,silver,or i forget the third color which is actaually a %.The top 3 bands can tell me the value of the resistor.If you tell me all 4 colors I should be able to tell you the value,with the gold/silver/whatever as the fourth.The first one should be right near the end or top.The only 1 problem will be trying to determine the wattage rating but is usually very small within a circuit.Greg
