GT3 Secondary fuel injector resistor obsolete, what now?

[Gasman GT3]

SJ are telling me the secondary fuel injector resistor which has died on my 1996 GT3 is obsolete and unavailable.  So what are my/our options.  Does anyone have another source, or are these things repairable?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Have you popped the cover off to have a butchers?

[Gasman GT3]

yes Ian, there must be a problem with the board, as I'm getting about 3.6 ohms, at either end of the resistor so I know thats ok, but nothing across the terminals.

 

Ive taken the resistor off the board, and soldered wires and spades to it, and it works a treat

Are you sure it wasn’t dry joints ??

I think Barry, the issue is with his car. Not his hips.

Oh i dont know, I am getting on a bit these days.

 

I have taken the unit apart, and as I said above Im getting good resitance across the resistor itself, but nothing at the spades.  To test I've taken the resistor off the board and solders a couple of wires to it and popped it back in, works a treat.  Conscious that these things can get hot I'm going to put it back in the casing and fill with resin.
