I dropped d a lock washer into the bowels of my K3 today, so had to invert
the unit to get the washer out of the unit. When I did so, the washer fell
out of the unit, but so did another component. Its a small rectangular
part, white on one side and blackish on the other, and either "3K3" or
"3R3" is stamped on it. I don't know where the part came from, or where it
should go back' I'm just sure it doesn't belong sitting on my bookshelf
rather than be in the radio.
You will need to send a picture so that people can determine what it is.
I took the K3 schematics (since you didn't mention K3s) and did a search
for 3.3 ohms and 3.3 kohms but that didn't give a hit, suggesting it may
not be a resistor. There are 3 3.3uf capacitors in the radio.
Once we've established what it is we can search further.
I thought it would be a 3.3 ohm resistor that would run hot, un-solder
itself but as said, can't find a schematic that has it.
