Amiga 2000 mouse problem

[commodorejohn]

I recently acquired an Amiga 2000 and it's displaying similar symptoms; no mouse movement, but the buttons do work. After looking at this thread, I checked the fuse in question with a multimeter, and sure enough, no continuity. It looks like something I can replace myself, but what kind of fuse is it? (i.e. what would I ask for at my local electronics store?)

Okay, none of the electronics stores in my area have anything like that, so it looks like I'll have to order online. Unfortunately, I'm not so familiar with low-level electrical stuff. If 4A turns out to be too low, I assume it'll just blow, but would I be risking anything if it turns out to be too high? Does it matter what voltage it's rated for? Are these about what I'd need?

I'd considered doing just that, but Radio Shack said they "don't stock anything that small," and there don't seem to be any other electronics stores in my area that are more than generic consumer gadget wholesalers, even to the extent that Radio Shack is :/

Hmm. Maybe I'll get a few of each, and if the 3A fuse doesn't work I can always replace it with a 4A fuse.

Well, I got the fuses this weekend and removed the blown one; it was a 4A after all, so I went ahead and replaced it with same. Works beautifully; thanks to everyone for their help!
