My LG washing machine PCB fuse has blown, I've identified the cause (faulty mains cable) and rectified it.
If I bypass the blown fuse everything now works. LG want ~ £130 for a new PCB
Unfortunately, the fuse is embedded in silicon potting compound and seems to be soldered into its end caps.
I've scrapped away the compound & smashed the glass in an effort to remove the endcaps and find the rating but I can't see the values and I'm afraid that if I'm not careful the endcap leg will snap at the board and I've got no hope of getting to the back of the PCB.
I'm not even sure if the fuse is mains or low voltage. Any help finding a suitable replacement would be appreciated.
