    Default Help Needed from someone with 8500 X50 w/ S7 horn.

    Hello everyone,

    I was replacing the speaker on my silver X50 when I accidentally chipped a few resistors off of the PCB board (I know, very careless). Now I need to find out what the specs of the resistors are so I can replace them.

    I need someone with an X50 to open up the case and take a close up picture of the area in question. The X50 needs to be silver model with S7 horn (not M4 - that has a different board). The value on the back of the resistors needs to be visible within the picture (I was able to get it with my 5mp smartphone and the following frame).

    If you are unsure of your horn type, an FCCID ending in M4 indicates an M4 horn. S7 should be something else, but I'm not sure since my sticker is torn off. Also, an S7 should look like this with the case off:

    Here is the general area (3 resistors fall within the red circle):

    And here is a zoomed in version of the same picture. Circled are the nubs that used to be connected by resistors:

    If anyone could do this for me, it would only take a few minutes, but would be a HUGE help.

    Thanks!

    Ok the numbers read upside down from how you have your radar board oriented so i oriented it to where you can read the numbers. Not sure if you can see them i can see them with my eyes but the camera is a little fuzzy

    Awesome dude. Thanks so much.

    How sure are you on those values? They look correct but it's kinda hard to tell from that image.

    Good stuff. Trying to get an order together. It's hard to measure the damn things! Too small for my eyes.
