HP41CV cardreader Message #1 Posted by Karel Marchena on 14 Oct 2003, 9:01 a.m. I repaired the cardreader with fuel line and it runs o.k. but gives a card error massage each time after reading the magnetic card. I resized the register to 026 so this is o.k. too, but still gives the error massage. I realised that I switched the black electrical wire with the orange wire. Maybe I damaged the cardreader doing so?. After having this problem I switched it back. The cardreader still gives the error masage. Maybe I need to buy a new cardreader? Is there anyone who has a cardreader?Please advise. Thanks Karel
