idrive torquemaster fuse

After the snow storm that recently hit our area one of our idrive doors became frozen stuck. When I tried to open it it hummed for a few seconds then quit. No beeps when hitting the reset button. After checking the owner's manual I figured the fuse is blown. The circuit board has a rectangular soldered in fuse that is identified on the board as 3.15A 250VAC. After checking ProDoorParts.com I see that there is a new replacement fuse that is listed as 15A. Is this the correct replacement upgrade? Thanks in advance.

So it doesn't look like the fuse and the fuse holder that is in this the "Wayne Dalton idrive Troubleshooting Tip #1 - Check the Fuse" thread?

No, I can't find a fuse holder anywhere on the board.

I say if your circuit board shows "3.15A 250VAC", then that's what it is. Call Wayne Dalton to confirm. Or bring the circuit board or fuse to Radio Shack and find a direct replacement. I think the 15A fuse is way off.

Ok, so my model does not have the normal glass fuse. There is a circular fuse that I can get from Digikey. My problem now is that the rectangular black piece that is on the board that I thought was some type of fuse is broken off and does not have enough wire to resolder. It is listed as P/N 296221 Rev. C, EMS 101303 SN 045573. Any idea what this is? Digikey probably has it but a search for those numbers yields nothing. My next choice would be to buy a new board. Pro Door Parts.com says their boards will fit all iDrive openers, but they have two different ones listed! My model is 3660-372. Thanks for your help.

The black piece is not the fuse, see http://www.gearhack.com/Forums/Home/Wayne%20Dalton/Wayne_Dal . . .

Also i was able to replace my fuses without actually taking the board out by using some careful work with needle nose pliers, but then the motor died anyways... I would avoid Wayne Dalton and go with a conventional spring and opener system if you ever upgrade
