So,i think the problem is or the cable or the fuse.

Do you know the position of fuse?

thank's a lot

Usually the backlight fuse sits near the LCD-cable connector, and is a 3A/32V fuse, marked with a P.
It's tiny (ca. 4mm x 1.5mm) most likely green (or blue) in colour, and has only one letter printed on it.

Much enlarged, it looks like this (with a different letter):


To repair, solder a new fuse piggy-back style on top of the old one.

ok,i find it and the buzzer of my tester don't work...so the problem is the fuse.

Do you know the size of the case of this fuse?I will buy a smd fuse but i don't know the size of case.

I can also use a direct bridgebut i think it may be dangerous

This is the one that you need: http://www.newark.com/littelfuse/046600 ... dp/86H2954
The shown picture is with an N but you will get one with a P
The effective size is about 4mm x 1.5mm (I corrected above).
They should be available from any decent electronics company in Italy/Europe.

first i upload two photos for help others with same problem...

Are you sure that the size is 1,5mmx0,5mm? i think case is 0603 with size 1,6mmx0,8mm.

MOD edit: Pictures WAY too big, tags removed, read the Forum Rules, Section 5.

I never said that.

Maybe you are reading inches instead of millimeters?
