Was that 541 ohms between the break and the 1B3, or you mean 541 ohms from the break to the HOT? 541 is close enough to 530.
Worth a try. Oh, and be sure that the new glob of solder has no pointy ends, but is rounded. Pointy ends may produce corona.
IIRC, solder iron heat and molten solder should burn off the enamel coating on the wire, if so, no need to scrape it.
