Re: HP-32s doesn't turn on Message #4 Posted by Dave Britten on 27 June 2010, 10:31 p.m., in response to message #3 by Giovanni Jimenez
I had the same problem with a 32s a few months ago. The problem was that the 1 key was stuck. If any keys are stuck, the CPU never starts properly, and it looks like the calculator won't turn on. If you look closely, the LCD does receive power, but none of the display elements are darkened.
Feel all the keys and see if any of them might have the little plastic dome switch stuck down. A firm smack to the rear of the case may release it, otherwise you'll have to pop the back off and open the keyboard.
