Dishwasher Repair- Can anyone identify this resistor?

Hi, my dishwasher lost all power the other day and being the handy type I decided to pull it apart to see what was wrong.
Electronics isn't necessarily my forte but in examining the control board I could see that a resistor has blown.
The banding on the resistor appears to be coloured Yellow, Grey, Black, Grey (although admittedly it is a little hard to tell because of the damage)
Using the colour coding system this would give the resistor a value of 48 Ohms +/-.05%
I have searched high and low on various component websites and just can't seem to find one of this value and any similar ones are completely different colours.
Is this a non-standard component? Am I likely to be able to find a replacement? Have I identified it wrong?
The rest of the board and the mechanical components are good so it would be a massive shame to have to scrap the whole appliance over this.
Thank you!

It is more likely yellow violet black silver which is 47 Ohms 10%, a standard value. A 0.05% resistor is extremely unlikely in anything short of lab equipment.

It looks like a 1 or 2 Watt resistor

Might even be a 3W. But replacing it is likely to just result in blowing the new resistor. You'll need to figure out why the first one fried before putting in a new one.

Sir Acidnation90 . . . . .( now . . . . . doesn't that make you 29 ? )


In looking in the left corner of your photo of . . . .

You will see a ferrite based power transformer in its black and white colors and to its left is being an " 8 " wink-wink pin IC which is your basics for the units low voltage switch mode power supply, along with a few E-caps and diodes.

That 8 pin IC usually has one pin missing for providing greater physical separation of any electrical flashover between pins at a corner.
There is being a power FET located within that chip, for interfacing / driving the power transformer and it is being dead shorted D to S.

Thus, the reason for the raw DC supply resistor being open circuit . . . . 47 ohms 2 Watt metal film.
Come back with that chips number , and if you can't work with finding a data sheet on the bad IC unit . . . . . at least give us your units brand and model number . . . as even my 24" Professional grade, Crystal Ball doesn't have that high degree of resolving capability.

Timely Technical Tip . . . .
Drill a one inch diameter hole in your refrigerator door. . .this will then allow you to check and be sure that the light goes off when the door is closed.
