Hi....just for future reference, I'd thought that I'd post the solution to my problem.
After some careful study, we came to the conclusion that we needed a 4R7 resistor to replace my crispy one.
We also had to replace the large cap beside the resistor and the 7812 regulator. The cap looked to be ready to go, if not gone already. The 7812 was shorted.
Replaced all 3 parts, put her back together and crossed our fingers. Lights came on and effervescence followed.
There was much joy...
