Default This has me puzzled (resistor change)

In article t,
says...

Could it have been possiable that the new resistor was bad, or maybe the
color code was read wrong so the wrong value was put in ?


As a lad, scratching through my dad's old box of mixed resistors,
looking for a near-enough value to one I needed, I used to get a strong
urge to choose any old value and re-paint the colours...
