#35375 - RE: NPN to PNP
"How can I replace it to the worn one without change of circuit?"

As you must by now have gathered, you can't.

A PNP transistor is effectively the "inverse" of an NPN - the two P-N juntions are reversed (hence the names!)

Therefore, you'd have to "invert" the whole of the rest of the circuit to match!

Far easier to find a replacement of the correct polarity!
