Hi,
My girlfriend's TomTom Go920 burned out while in use and I thought I'd have a go at repairing it. Taking it apart, immediately brought my eye (and my nose) to the problem - a burned out component. The problem is - I don't know what it is.
It looks like it's a resistor R117 but it seems to be polarised so not sure if it is one. Could either be a diode or a capacitor - I am not that good with SM components. On top are markings "470 6h".
I've attached the image with the failed component (PCB picture stolen from the web). What is it, where can I get it (or equivalents) and what other components would I be wise to change around this area?
Thanks
Alex
