Poker 2 Help
« on: Tue, 05 January 2016, 15:30:24 »
Hey guys,

I'm hoping that you can help me with this Poker 2 that I received from retrochick, it's missing R83.

Can anyone with a Poker 2 and a multimeter tell me the value of this resistor?  Also, there's a capacitor right by the missing USB port in the image that looks pretty janky, if anyone can tell me that value too, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks so much for all of our help!

Perhaps this should be moved to the general keyboard sub-forum?

Tell me about it. Thanks for the offer, I will circle them in just a bit (on my phone right now).

If it means anything they say 330 on them. I have a multimeter and can use it though (though I have only ever used it for continuity lol)



Will that PCB ever live again? I mean, it looks like 2 of the 5 pads are completely gone at this point.

Perfect! Yes I believe I can bring it back to life. Thank you so much.

Now I just hope the capacitor nearest the USB port is intact.
