your PSU has just blown you need a new one.



there was a switch to change from the 120V to 240V. (A red one at the back usually were the 3 pin power plug is on the PSU)



having it on the 110V (american voltage) and it being powered up on a 240V line has blown it, nothing you can do but replace it.

if its the fuse on the plug you are talking about then open it up see what voltage it is and just buy another one ,easy .
you probably blowed the power box...buy a new one in your area and you'll be fine
Did you plug in with the original lead or with a new UK lead that you bought? My UK laptop works fine in New York but I have to use a local mains lead. If you've blown a fuse, you'd better call a sparky to come check things over - or a techie if you think the fuse blew inside the computer itself
Did you remember to change the voltage setting on the power supply?



Just replace the power supply with a UK version - they're cheap enough.
LOL did you swich the power supply from 120 to 220?



Replace the Power supply and make sure it is set for 220

unfortunately, it will not be a fuse. As the UK mains voltage is higher than the US, the current required would be lower and therefore the fuse would not blow



If the power supply is not auto voltage sensing ( you can tell - if there is a little red switch near where you plug the power cord in, you have a manual voltage selector), and if the voltage was set to 110V then you will damaged the power supply.



You need to replace it with one of at least the same power rating ( 400 / 500 / 600W etc)



They are relatively easy to replace, but if in doubt get someone else to do it



We have a good laugh in the office when someone plugs in a PC returned from the US and the power supply goes bang :)
you're using a US pc in the UK.....did you remember to change the voltage????

It is probably a relay and mot a fuse. these are contained under the hood in a black box and will be clearly labeled.

  • Which fuse do you change for the light on the gear shift of a 2005 Pontiac Sunfire?

    The PRN123 usually light up but the light is not working anymore. I am assuming a fuse has blown of something, but I can not find it ANYWHERE online of in the Manual...



    Anyone know which fuse I need to change?



    Thanks in advance!!!
    Which fuse do you change for the light on the gear shift of a 2005 Pontiac Sunfire?
    if that light is the only thing that has gone out it probably isn't the fuse but the bulb......I believe the fuse is the same as the one for the power plug in the console!!! I think it will be labeled accy or rear cig lighter!!!
    Which fuse do you change for the light on the gear shift of a 2005 Pontiac Sunfire?
    It's the bulb, not a fuse. If it was the fuse, other lights would be out as well
    the one that says light
    you may need to change the bulb, I don't think there is a fuse for that particular part.
    If rest of instrument lighting works ok, it is not a fuse, - it is the bulb, (or socket contacts)!



    %26quot;Haynes Auto Repair manual%26quot; will take you through removal and replacement, - plus tell you how to do practically everything on car (except transmissions)-- That is if you have basic knowledge of how to use tools, and can read! It will run you about $20 or less at most of %26quot;better%26quot; auto part supply stores! I pick mine up at AutoZone (yes I still buy them because they save me time on my own cars, - and keep me from breaking things trying to get them apart!

    I had a 98 escort zx2, if I remember correctly it had 2 or 3 different fuse panels on it, one either under the dash on the drivers side or in the drivers side in dash where the door meets the dash itself, also one under the hood, as long as they have the covers then you should have all the information you would need to find and replace a fuse or flasher actuator. or you could try going to a local parts store autosone or oreilly's are the ones I prefer. tell them your turn signals are messed up and you think its a fuse. see if they could help find it. also if your hazard lights work then it may not be a fuse, possible it could be the turn signal switch in the steering wheel assembly. good luck with it. (you might try a local ford dealership for either some advice or a replacement owners manual)



    edit* I had several tabs open in Firefox and forgot to check them all before I hit submit. here is an address that should be a 98 ford contour owners manual in PDF format http://www.analogstereo.com/pdf/om/conto鈥?/a> you'll need adobe acrobat reader to view it. if it doesnt open after you have saved it then google or yahoo search for adobe acrobat reader.

    Open up the fuse box or panel and there should be a list of what fuses should be where and their amperage.

    How do I change the dashboard main light on my M reg Clio?

    I have already tried changing the fuse and it is fine. It is the bulb that has gone. All the other lights are working fine. Its a really problem as i cna't see my spedo of a night :o(
    How do I change the dashboard main light on my M reg Clio?
    I had the same problem, but fortunately for me, the police followed me the whole way home with their flashing lights so I could read the speedo.



    Unfortunately, by the time I realised I could use their lights to check my speed with, I was travelling at twice the legal limit and swerving eratically as I struggled to check the speed.



    Probably I would ask the bloke in the shop you got the bulb from - they are usually pretty cluey. Or plain stupid. Never in the middle. Never.
