Re: fixing a Levono/IBM 6659 PCD monitor (any idea what part 'F701' might be?)

Hi all,

I'm trying to fix a 6659 monitor which is showing some odd symptoms.
When I got the monitor it would power up roughly 50% of the time. The
other 50%, pushing the power button did nothing. I suspected that it
might just be an issue with the power plug socket on the monitor, so I
opened up the case. Unfortunately, while probing around with it
plugged in, I must have shorted something since I soon got a whiff of
fried component and the monitor now powers up 0% of the time.

Visual (and olfactory) inspection have led me to suspect a surface
mount component labelled 'F701' might be the culprit. This part is
sort of translucent, possibly with a piece of wire running through it
(maybe its a fuse?). It has '4FT' printed on it. Any ideas what it
might be? Better yet, anyone have schematics for the 6659?

thanks!
Graham

Fuse, 4AT is 4Amp Time delay. But fuses dont olfact when they go, so it
sounds like something else is wrong. Freecycle might be quicker.
