In electronics/electricity, it's a component or part of a circuit that opposes/reduces the flow of current.

What do the colours on resistor mean?

The colored bands on a resistor represent the resistor value and tolerance. The first two bands indicate the significant digits of the resistance value, the third band represents the multiplier, and the fourth band (if present) indicates the tolerance of the resistor. By decoding these colors, you can determine the resistance value of the resistor.


What does it mean if resistor x is steeper then resistor y?

If resistor X is steeper than resistor Y in a voltage versus current graph (I-V curve), it indicates that resistor X has a lower resistance value compared to resistor Y. The steeper slope means that for a given increase in voltage, resistor X allows a greater increase in current, following Ohm's Law (V = IR). Therefore, resistor X conducts more current than resistor Y for the same voltage applied.


Your car was leaking water on the resistor so you fixed the leak and replaced the resistor and in the mean time before the resistor got replace the fan would only kick on on the highest setting but on?

The old resistor was burned out. If you burn out the new one again, replace the blower motor.
