HP-200LX - Help, does not turn on
Message #1 Posted by Gilberto Campos on 6 June 2001, 10:07 a.m.

HELP!!!

I haven't used my 200LX for several months. The other day, when I tried to switch it on, it just didn't. I have already replaced all the batteries (both AA and CR2032 lithium cell) but it still does not switch on.

Would anyone please help me with some troubleshooting??? I don't even know where to start!!!

Please HELP!!!!

Thanks, Gilberto

In the back of the manual explains how to reset. You will lose all information in memory. Also before doing a reset, check contrast function (don't know off hand if it even has one).

Good luck.

Thanks for your help.

I manage to find out that my 200LX does not like Duracell Ultra batteries, but works perfectly on "normal" Duracells.

Bye. Gilberto
