Does anyone know what the "FU" or "FD" on the resistor stands for? I'm trying to fix my TV's mainboard but I can't seem to find these types of resistors anywhere. Pic related.

Manufacturers mark, not relevant to the value. Any .47 ohm, 2w resistor will do the job.

Also, /sqt/ is here >>1197524 faggot.

It's "FU" and it clearly means "fuck you".

How can someone be qualified to work on that and not be familiar with resistors?

I have to say, we get some first class trolls in here. Are you Australian?

We can say with a fairly high degree of confidence that the resistor is not the problem, and we can also say with a fairly high degree of confidence that OP doesn't know what he's doing.

Not necessarily a bad thing, but fumbling around in the dark like a retard is clearly crossing the line.

Yes. It's rated to be used as a failsafe fuse. It will fail by blowing cleanly instead of arcing, smouldering, or catching on fire.

[usually. On that thing it looks more like a logo.]
