Re: HP 35 adapter voltage Message #5 Posted by Tony Duell on 21 Aug 2005, 9:28 a.m., in response to message #4 by Michael
I've only worked on the UK, US (dual-voltage) and car versions of the adapter, but on those there are 4 small screws on the bottom. Take those out, the case comes apart and you can get to the PCB.
On the dual-voltage version, the voltage selector switch falls apart when you remove the PCB. Make sure you don't lose any of the parts!
You must, of course, unplug it from the mains before opening it!
When re-inserting the screws, turn them counterclockwise until they seem to engage in the original threads, then tighten them. That way, you don't re-cut the threads in the plastic. It's less likely to strip that way.
