I have a Cp150 that is dead. I'm trying to locate the fuse and cannot find any component that looks suspect. Any hints would be appreciated. Thanks for looking.

Re: CP150 fuse location
You need to remove the main board from the chassis....there are 4 torx scres on the board, two on top, one on the left, center, and one at the bottom, center.
\I believe they are T5 screws.
Once you have the board separated, look at the battery contacts, just to the left, you will see a trace running from under the left contact. I believe the fuse is noted as F501, but I don't remember.
it is horizontally situated across that trace I mentioned.
Ohm that component....if blown, it will read open(of course).
To easily replace this, obtain a few spares, and get some super glue, and a toothpick..
Cut the toothpick at a sharp angle to increase the surgase area...
Dab a TINY amount of superglue to the end, and place that end on the new fuse.
Tack solder one side, then the other to the board.
Once you allow it to cool, you can dress up the solder pads to neaten the appearance.
And use some denatured alcohol to clean away the residue from the soldering job.
Reassemble, test...*beep* *beep*...DONE!
