If's a fairly common (but quite old) part. Places like www.findchips.com show
them as being available from a number of sources.

I have a Becker AR 3201 and it don't turns on. I know the radio has an internal fuse but i don't know where. In the Installation Manual i only found the wiring connection diagram. Anybody knows where can i found maintenance and repair manual, so i can see the several components of the radio? Thank you. Best regards from Portugal.

The internal fuse in the AR3201 is located next to the big coil on the board near to where the power comes into the radio. The fuse is rated at 5 Amps, and my fuse has the lettering 5A on the side. The fuse is mounted horizontally and spaced a little above the board (all other components are mounted vertically).

The fuse is a PICO and you can buy them on eBay for about 0.4 Euro. You do not have to dismantle the board from the radio to replace the fuse, but you can just solder the new fuse to the legs of the old fuse. This is easier for you and less danger to the board.
