if you're lucky it could be the fuse (IIRC)
also check the voltage

It is called "picofuse" the same one is used for voltage on video out and other connectors. unfortunately it costs a lot more than ordinary fuse.
I was surprised to see its rated at 4A (IIRC), seems a bit too high..

What rating fuses did you use?


4A

it should be the same as the original picofuse, but it does seem rather large, at 12V that would be like 48W or so.. :inquisitive:
its not that hard to find picofuses, but they are very expensive compared to standard ones..
