You can bet it's a dallas or one of the other two wire digital
components and not a simple thermister. Having opened
more than a few packs I can say it's not going to be
something that simple or easy to get data on.

Thanks for the replies!
It cannnot obviously be a plain fuse, since it is not
short-circuited (assuming it's still ok).
I guess the most plausible idea is that it is just some kind
of thermal-dependant component. Maybe a NTC or PTC. Still, how could I
replace this component? I should characterize it electrically.
Cheers,
