May have been better of in beginners, but since it's an attempted repair (not critical equipment just to see if I can), I thought I would ask here.
The attached is ostensibly a resistor (not seen a green one that I can remember, but still, marked as R "something" on the board). MM shows it as low resistance, but I can't make much sense of the colour bands. The first and last are either white or grey (or one white one grey etc), the middle are red, silver and gold. I can't seem to match this up to the various charts available for resistors (or for axial inductors for that matter). For resistors, I can't position gold and sivler as adjacent bands in those positions and for inductors, five band would indicate military standard and require silver to start which I don't have.
Anyway, I'm guessing I'm being dim, so would appreciate some assistance.
Thanks.
