Hi Kevin,
I found the original post here: Original Powerstation flat/brite/edge switches not working - #5 by kevin996
Did you get the burnt connector fixed too? I am guessing you did not hear back from your email, or did they tell you to send it in?
There are a few revisions of the original Power Station, and they specify different values of this component! Do you see a revision number on the back or a serial number? That would help me give you accurate information. If it is a later model, after mid-2014 (which is it):
- R501 – 5R 5W
- R502 – 27R 5W
- R503 – 5R 5W
- R504 – 27 5W
If the pattern of the other resistors matches above, then replace your R503 with 5R 5W of the same length.
