Broken component om my MMM - 10.06.2010, 03:13 PM

Hi Caslte,

I opened up my MMM today while cleaning my mbx6. I open it from time to time to check the fan and remove the dirt in it. When I was looking at the PCB I remarked something weird. A resistor (I guess it's a resistor) got damaged from hitting the bottom of the case. There's a print in the bottom from that component and the 2 components next to it. The sidewall broke off and bend over.

I was running my car sunday at the track and I didn't had a problem. I haven't ran the buggy since then so I guess it's still working right now, but the component seems very weak.

What should I do with it castle? Send it in for waranty? Put a small drop of solder on it so it fixated again? I live in Belgium so I guess it will take a while to send it in and get it back :(

I hope you guys can help me out.


Here are the pics I just made:
