I'd say that's probably close enough that you should look elsewhere for your problem. Unless you have a meter that can call out the decimals to the hundredths of an ohm, you aren't going to get any closer than that.

Just for fun, I threw the numbers into Excel to see what I get. I used the lower end of the GP spec (1 ohm) the middle, and the high end (3 ohms). Then I calculated the total resistance for them. I also did a random distribution, which is closer to reality. Here's what I got: You can see...

Given the age of these things, I don't have a hard time believing all 4 are bad. :) I did the math a while back, so I don't think the TM is wrong, but maybe.... Let's see The TM says the spec on the GPs is 1-3 ohms. That means the total resistance of the GPs is between .125 and .375 ohms...

Well, I just measured mine, and it's .5, too. That's probably why I've been having trouble starting, or part of the reason. I have GPs on order, so I expect to see what kind of shape mine are in maybe this Saturday. I'm not surprised my resistor bank is just a bit out of spec. The wonder is...

Gotcha. That's not what the TM calls out. It says the resistance should be be .28 for the pack, so I think each of your packs may have one of its resistors open. Each individual resistor should be twice the resistance of the pack, since they are in parallel. Think of it this way - when...

When you say you got .5 ohms, was that for each individual resistor, or for the resistor pack? The pack should be .28 ohms (TM9-2320-289-20, page 2-65.0). Each individual resistor should be .56 (to be precise).

The resistor pack has TWO resistors, which are in parallel. Each resistor is .56 ohms. In parallel, that's .28 for the pack. So, the fact that you got .5 says that one of the resistors is open, leaving you with the other resistor only, which on your meter probably measures .5. (And I'm not...

There's something weird here. If you see 24v at the plugs, they are all open. But how did they get that way? The higher resistance on the resister bank probably means one of them is open (there are two in parallel), which would cause LOWER voltage to the plugs, as already pointed out...
