I have a controller for an electric throw blanket that I would like to repair, but I have no experience soldering on boards

You can see at bottom left a yellow box and a resistor. Something has burnt out in this area, and likely both will need to be replaced at a minimum

I would also need help identifying parts. The yellow box is embossed ‘Tenta’ and has printed on the side ‘TC MEX/TENTAMKP 0.1 uf 275VAC’ with some other markings obscured or damaged

Is this an achievable project?

    Thanks. It seems wasteful to throw it away but I’m working on my loss aversion 😉 and technically the blanket is still a blanket, just less warm
