It could be gold too. It is so small I am using those glasses to try to increase the image to identify it. I used to have a magnifying glass but can't remember where it might be.
Where is a good place to buy these?
** Added 2 more pics using a stronger pair of glasses to magnify. **

Bad boys race our young girls behind victory garden walls. get started now
Black - 0 Brown - 1 red - 2 orange -3 yellow - 4 green - 5 blue - 6 violet - 7 gray - 8 white - 9
gold - 5 Silver 10% none - 20%
so brown green and orange is 15000 ohm, or 15k ohms +/- 20% LOL..I like the Politically Correct version.....probably one of the few things I remember from my EE education days is the CORRECT version of the color code...but the non-PG version
Never, ever argue with an IDIOT. They will drag you to their level and then beat you with their years of experience

I zoomed in on the phone and it does show a gold line on the resistor. All 4 are the same.. Looks like doc is correct: Great catch Doc! Is TJP correct, 1/8 watt? Maybe it's the picture, but it looks to me like orange, green, brown, gold (first band at the right side of the pic). That would be 350 ohm 5%...

I'll agree on the 350 Ohm 5 %. Wattage? they do make a 1/16 w resistor don't know is they make anything smaller in a carbon film ? the size should tell you the wattage. if in doubt and you have the space bigger is better Silly question Have you tried measuring THEM with a DVM. Maybe they are OK? And to the other posters everybody liked Violet

I did not measure them as I do not no how to do that. I am just assuming they are shot since so many of the leds were burnt out. The leds that the resistors are attached to are not working, I did try those. The only tool I have is a 7 function digital multimeter from harbor freight.. https://www.harborfreight.com/7-function-digital-multimeter-63759.htmlIs this the tool to use to test them?

TJP, you are correct, 1/8 watt! Now I know what to look for...
Watched youtube on testing resistors....2 don't show any reading and one 180ish, the other 350ish. Sounds like one survived, one is "wounded" and the other 2 are retired lol.
