FIXED! Sanyo Projector With Shorted Inductor & Transistor

Yes, it's just a ferrite bead. I wasn't sure how important it is. I couldn't understand why it said 330 ohm next to it in the service manual. The other ones on the board measure 0 ohms across them. Perhaps it has the potential to resist current in a manner which is equivalent to 330 ohms of resistance in certain conditions or something?

As I wrote in Reply #2,

...This is the impedance of the inductor to a sine wave at some specific frequency, probably around 10 MHz.

RF suppression chokes and ferrite beads for general use are rated at 10 to 100 MHz.

Good job, thanks for the followup.
