Kicker KX600.4 Help OR Schematic

[WackyWRZ]

Bought a Kicker KX600.4 Amp for DIRT cheap. Hooked it up expecting it to not work, but it works great except for one small problem... The "badge" light and the fan do not operate. Upon opening the amp, apparantly someone got liquid or something in where the fan goes, and theres white corrosion everywhere, and corroded through many components. I have gone through and replaced most everything except for 2 resistors that are gone, and I don't know the values. They are right next to the "fan" connector, one is R3 and the other is R023. They look to be the small 1/8th watt ones. If someone could post a diagram OR could tell me the values of these 2 resistors I would greatly appreciate it!!

Thanks!

R023 is a 0 ohm resistor/jumper.

R3 is 10k.

Perry,

Thank you SOOO much!!! So I can just put a small piece of wire across R023 then? This is the first time I've ever seen a 0 ohm resistor... Can you tell me the purpose of such a thing?

Thanks again!!

Yes. You can use a wire in place of the 0 ohm resistor.

I don't know why they would use them in an amp that also uses wire jumpers. Maybe the machines that stuff the boards can better handle the 0 ohm resistors (compared to bare wire jumpers). That's only a guess and not a very well educated guess.
