Time delay, often called slow blow, means it rides through the short surge when a motor or compressor starts but still blows if an overload carries on. We don't have the appliance or models on file, so match EAF38718601 to the marking on the old fuse or to your parts list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen a 35A time delay fuse has blown\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fuse is the sacrificial link in a circuit. It carries current normally, then melts open when current stays too high for too long, cutting power before wiring or components overheat. A blown fuse of this rating usually leaves the appliance, or one large section of it, completely dead. Because 35A is a high rating, a blown fuse often points to a serious fault such as a shorted compressor, motor, board component or wiring. Find and fix that cause first. A new fuse dropped into a shorted circuit will simply blow again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine LG part number EAF38718601\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated 35A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTime delay (slow blow) type\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAppliance and model fit not on file, match the old fuse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCurrent rating\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e35A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTime delay (slow blow)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReplacing the fuse\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIsolate the appliance completely before opening it. Unplug it, or for hard-wired units turn off the circuit breaker and any isolator, and remember that hard-wired appliances must be worked on by a licensed electrician. Check that the new fuse has the same rating and type as the old one. Never fit a higher rated fuse or bridge the holder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use a fast blow fuse instead?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. A fast acting fuse may blow every time a motor or compressor starts, because it can't tolerate the brief start-up surge. Replace a time delay fuse with the same type and rating, ideally the LG number your parts list shows.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44551394000974,"sku":"EAF38718601","price":30.82,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/eaf38718601-genuine-lg-time-delay-fuse-35a","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
