Jaguar exploded resistor???

We seem to have blown a Jaguar, two in fact. Both were used on different motors with the correct fuses in place. The small surface mount resistor, R15, blew up on them and melted into another component. When tracing the leads from the resistor, it seems to go to the same trasnsistor everyone else has been having problems with.

Does anyone have this problem or a solution. We have plenty of Jaguars, so that is not the problem, we just don't want to keep blowing them.

I will post some pictures of the blow resistor later.

Thanks!
