Re: Faulty shift & alpha keys on hp39g Message #4 Posted by Raymond Hellstern (Germany) on 7 Nov 2002, 7:30 p.m., in response to message #3 by Mike
This type of housing (39G,40G,49G) is easy to open.
Just take a look at www.hpcalc.org or maybe in the forum archives here.
If you apply some pressure below the display,
and try those 'faulty' keys,
do they work then?
If yes, it's the same pcb contact problem mentionned in an hpmuseum thread a while ago (-> archives).
Another thread mentionned a company which sells new 39G's for $25. Maybe that would be an option;-)
