Dell e171fp inverter fuse identification

[nvaughn]

Hey all,

I was hoping someone here could help me identify the value on a fuse that's blown. It's fuse F1 on an inverter from a Dell e171fp (model numbers include SIC1803 / K021036.00 / etc).

Attached is an image of the board with the fuse circled.

Thanks in advance!

Hard to tell, but does the first line read 4 A? Maybe a 4 Amp 32V fuse?

I'm not sure - I've looked at more than one of these boards and the markings on the fuse all look similar. It almost looks like "1 A" or "V 1" depending upon what side you read it from - though the inverter drives four lamps, so I'm guessing that a 1 amp fuse would be pretty underkill.

Looks like 4A to me
