I have an Asus U57A laptop that would not turn on - completely dead. I troubleshot and found the LCD cable was causing the problem (pretty unusual) - it appeared the cable was kinked and most likely shorting out the motherboard. I ordered another cable and the laptop now turns on, but no display - OK on external monitor though - so now I suspect the backlight is out, and I'm suspecting the shorted cable blew the backlight fuse on the motherboard.
But I don't see any fuses around the LCD connector. Here's a pic of the area, can anyone help me find the fuse?
BTW: The motherboard is printed with K55VD part number.
