- Page 27 The solution is to remove the resistors and return them to the factory for reprocessing. If the condition is discovered early in the failure, there is every likelihood that all of the resistors can be reused. If the failure is allowed to progress, resistor replacement becomes necessary. 6600/Rev/Mar.2021 Page 27 Altronic Research Inc.
