Hi Joshua Powell

That is an inductor, i cannot see the values well in your picture.

e,g. you can can search in electronics component stores, like element14, digikey, etc e.g. value, 1R0 inductor.

else you also can get from aliexpress, ebay, etc

Hi Joshua

No worries, you are welcome. the inductor is cracked.

try replacing and see if it works!

the inductor has 280 or something like that printed on it

@Joshua Powell that number is actually pretty important. It shows how many Henries your inductor is rated for. Three digit values are in nano Henries or micro Henries depending on manufacturers choice. The first 2 digits are the value and the 3rd digit is the multiplier. If yours shows 280 that means it has an inductance of 28 µH (28x0=28)
