Use a multimeter to bridge the gap, and read the current.
As a rule of thumb, you can generally double the normal operating current to get a safe fuse rating. The circuitry can handle double the normal current for as long as it takes the fuse to blow.

Is there any way to identify the current rating for the fuse without talking to the manufacturer?Unfortunately it's a surface mount fuse with nothing identifying the current rating.I have identified the problem :)I poked around and didn't find any components that were improperly soldered. All the connections looked good. So I pulled out my multimeter and found that there was no continuity across the fuse. When I bypass the fuse with a wire the device works great.
