    I was wondering if anyone has found the backlight fuse for the Vaio Duo 13 Pro - SVD132.

    The LCD connector is in the top right hand corner of the Front photo. Only some of the components are actually labeled. The fuse I suspect to be the culprit has a silver outline next to the LCD connector- this fuse is similar (in appearance) to one ngvuanh correctly pointed out in an older Duo model - the Duo 11. That fuse has 1G or I4 or some variation of those written on it and is one-of-a-kind.

    Back

    If anyone has any ideas or suggestions I would appreciate it greatly.

    Even if you do find the fuse, is it replaceable by end users with simple tools like a soldering iron? I think not, but I may be wrong.
