Hello,

I am trying to repair my ADVAN AGM15TL/L150ATA 15" lcd monitor.
Monitor was manufactured March 1999. The problem is the backlight not
turning on as I can barely see the video on the screen. I have since
looked at the inverter board and found F1 a surface mount fuse opened.
12 volts feed into this fuse.

I have to use a microscope to read the marks on the fuse. It has an
impression mark " FP ". I need help figuring out how to read this fuse
and what to replace it with. Maybe someone may know a common value
that are used on other brand inverter boards.

TIA, Al


You could start with an amp, if it blows immediately then something else is
probably wrong, if it works but then blows after a few minutes try a 1.5 or
2A fuse, I wouldn't go any higher than 2.5A though.
