Resistor colour code
The band count is the control, because getting it wrong is the whole difficulty: the same stripes mean 1 kΩ on a five-band part and 10 Ω on a four-band one.

Surface-mount parts are printed rather than striped — the code on a chip resistor.
Anywhere from 4.46 kΩ to 4.93 kΩ is this part behaving correctly — a resistor is a range, not a value, and ±5% of 4.7 kΩ is 235 Ω either way. There is no fourth band on a ±20% part, which is the one case where a missing band is the answer rather than a misread.
