Ipad mini no backlight - GSM-Forum

Hello everyone,

I've an ipad mini with backlight problem.
As far as I can see it requires L2200 fuse to replace.
I don't really want to use a jumper cause it's not gonna be a longterm fix.

I'm trying to find an alternative fuse.
Has anyone any idea what other phones use this kind of fuse L2200?
I've some faulty and not working iphone motherboards.
I did a small research and based on schematics iphone 4 or 4s doesn't have L2200 fuse. I have samsung s3 mobo, but I'm not sure if it has L2200 fuse.

I just need to get it sorted as soon as possible. Can't wait for new fuse.
I need to find another fuse somewhere and take it out of faulty pcb.

Any advice?

I desoldered one fuse from old s3 pcb but it still no backlight. I just bought a set of 5 L2200 filters and will solder new one once delivered..
