resistor values fisher and paykel?

I have a fisher and paykel washer and the power supply fuse blew. I replaced it and it blew again. I opened up the power supply unit (ECS series 51) and found a burnt out resistor. How can i find out the values of the resistors? I need to get the values of r602 and r603. It is an old washer but I can't afford a new one at the moment.
Cheers for any help

Both Resistor - colours green.blue.brown, 560 ohm if I'm not mistaken.

I have pulled them out and they are too discoloured to see the band colours.
Cheers for your reply. Like I said the machine is pretty old and I would like to try the resistors before I scrap the machine.

Gibbert, sorry to tell you this but...

If a resistor burns up it's usually a symptom of some other component having failed and consequently making the resistor pass too much current for its Wattage rating - i.e. it gets too hot because of a fault somewhere else in the circuit. Changing the two resistors will probably not fix the problem - any new resistors would likely burn up too. Resistors seldom burn up spontaneously on their own - sometimes the designer / manufacturer puts in a cheaper lower wattage resistor than called for and it slowly burns and discolors on the outside and it gently cooks - You can often "lift" these from the PCB and see the bands underneath

Resistors are nearly always marked with color bands indicating their value 0-9 = Black Brown Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Violet Grey White

First band = first value
Second band = second digit
Third band = Multiplier (number of Zeros)
Fourth band = tolerance %

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistor#Four-band_resistors

Brown Black Orange = 10,000 Ohms 10K

Good luck...
