Anyone able to I.D. this component please? One (PA102) has ruptured and now permanently open circuit meaning the input hums should mic i/p be selected.. The red coloured body has the symbol 'T' . There is no schematic for the board available, only a roadmap and these two components are marked with an ! .... meaning they are specific.

I don't think it's a fuse or one of those self-repairing fuses. I prefer not to just bridge the OC one as this is an expensive hi-end Panasonic camera. I hope to be able to just buy a few of these components from say Element 14, Mouser etc... The only other option is to replace with  a new populated PCB which will take weeks and cost the earth!

Anyone every seen such a thing?

Its a fuse to limit current in the local ground/inductor.
