Looks like 45mA is fairly conservative, so total dissip is 0.5W.
So 2W resistor would be enough. This goes for 235 Ohms one as it dissipates 90%. The 32 ohm can be under 1W.
PS. As long as the resistor checks OK, no matter how it looks, clean it and leave it be.
Wow, that was simple. A lot less wattage than I thought just by looking at the one that is in there now. I'm going to clean it then leave it alone, but I'll get a couple of resistors just in case.
Thank you.
