Received and old Prusa. Can't find model

As mentioned, I got a free Prusa Printer.  It looks to be an I3, but that's as far as I can get. If it helps, it has a clear Plexiglas body.

The board shorted out, when a plastic piece holding the Z axis sensor broke, and made metal contact. I ordered a new one. I tried following the wiring as it came off of the other board. The board lit up, but all I got "white" lines across. I tried plugging it into my laptop that has prusa slicer. I reran the configuration setup, but Nothing happened. ...that's as far as I've gotten. 

I've tried to look up the wiring schematics, but it's showing a board with 3 fuses, and I have an Arduino Mega 2560 R3, SO I'm airring on the side of caution on what to do next. 

Disclaimer ... I'm a total  NOOB to this, and this is my 1st time, so be gentle.

That's probably a Prusa reprap clone.

A search returns the following printer.

Folger Tech RepRap Prusa i3

Now that I see the pictures it's probably a clone of a clone.

This one is more like it I think.

The original Prusa has been copied so many times that it will be quite a quest to find this (brand).
