Loose buttons Message #1 Posted by Bruno on 3 Apr 2006, 11:53 a.m. Hi, I don't know why, but the "ON", "0", "2" and "3" buttons of my hp48 gii are loose. It's pretty annoying, and the "0" doesn't even work very well, is there a way to repair it manually? Did this happen to anyone else? Every time I try to turn it off, the calc locks up because I hit red shift and ON, but the ON button is loose so it locks up...

Re: Loose buttons Message #3 Posted by Ron Ross on 3 Apr 2006, 12:57 p.m., in response to message #1 by Bruno Since it is a 48Gii, you have a one year warrenty on workmanship I believe. And maybe longer as it is a keyboard issue. Call Hp's service center (find it on Hp's website). Unfortunately, I do not know the number offhand. Even if it is out of warrenty, you may still be able to have it repaired (they do no such thing, they just replace) for a modest fee of approx half the cost of a new calculator ie $30-50 (although this too may have changed).
