So this issue didn't exist until you removed the resistor? I'm too much of a n00b to understand how that works, but logic tells us if the issue didn't exist before you removed the resistor, then someone back in time knew more than we did. Icon_smile

I say put it back and leave it. Maybe throw a little dab of paint or a sticker label by it to note it's not original, if you feel like it.
