Just get a similar fuse in size and rating and you can just solder it right on top or beside it as long as it doesn`t touch against other components and just put the ends to match up with your old fuse and just solder the new one at each end to your old fuse,this way you don`t even have to take your old fuse of the board and maybe damage the area were your old fuse was if you were to remove it,this saves time and the fuse will act as you actually replaced it.

But if this fuse has legs and go`s through the board it will have to be unsoldered from the other side,which you use a copper braid or a vacuum desoldering tool which sucks the solder up after it has been heated and soften or lay the copper braid on the heated solder and lift it up as solder will stick in between the braids,but do not overheat area to much as damage can occur to other components if near by.Hope this info helps.G.L.
