Re: Where to get HP calculator keyboard parts ? Message #2 Posted by Raymond Del Tondo on 2 May 2005, 8:50 p.m., in response to message #1 by Bernhard
I assume you're talking about HP-41 keyboards.
Due to their construction (many heat stakes)
it doesn't make too much sense to 'repair' these keyboards.
There are many 'dead' HP-41s with still intact keyboards around,
most of them on eBay, but for reasonable prices.
AFAIK even HP simply replaced the complete upper case shell
instead of fiddling out the keyboard pcb.
The standard service parts were the IO block,
the CPU board, the battery holder, the lower case half,
the upper case half with the keyboard pcb and display,
and the U-shaped spacer between them.
