If you have an open fuse, 99% of the time a fuse isn't going to fix it, unl ess it's one of those square white ceramic fuses with the metal end caps (t hose will fail for no good reason). Since there's no schematic for the mai n board, you're going to need to trace out the circuit by hand. Unfortunat ely, you may find no direct short off the fuse, but a secondary short on th e far side of a buck converter that the fuse feeds, which is harder to trac e out. It might also ultimately lead to a shorted BGA chip. You can find a main board that model pretty cheap.

If you have a current limited supply, you can feed a current into the load side of the fuse (maybe 1 amp) and watch what gets hot. If a regulator IC gets hot, the short is probably on the output side of the regulator.
