Wow, thanks very much! A Candohm resistor eh? learn something new ever day I suppose!

Below is an image of it removed from the chassis and the resistance values across the terminals. I put question marks after the 590 because it was constantly fluctuating up and down and never really stabilized.
I should also mention that I have a very CHEAP multi-tester I purchased years ago for automotive use.

Could i just buy a terminal strip and then solder new resistors across the terminals (in series)?

Quick question - I've never purchased resistors before, how do you know what wattage you should be buying? does it indicate somewhere on the schematic?

Thanks again.
