Re: 48sx Keys Not Working! Message #2 Posted by Paul Brogger on 17 Dec 2003, 1:43 p.m., in response to message #1 by Sanjeev
Recently there has been a discussion about a similar problem in a similar calculator.
"Similar calculator" from an internal construction standpoint that is. I think you'll find that the explanation there applies in general to your calculator as well.
To fix it, you'll probably want to open it. There are a number of pages scattered about describing how to open an HP-48. (That's been discussed in the Forum a number of times, too!) I've heard of three methods: removing the aluminum faceplate, drilling hidden holes to cut posts, and simply prying the thing apart. FWIW, I think the second approach is probably best, but I'm sure there are others who will differ.
(All of the above assumes my experience with HP-48G's applies to HP-48SX's as well -- I'd be very surprised to learn that it doesn't.)
Good luck!
