hp28s need repair ?. Autotest fails

[rprosperi]

No service manual for the 28s (or any of the "Champion" folding-case models) has even been captured, or even seen, in the wild. I strongly suspect that none was ever created as the machines are effectively not serviceable, from a manufacturer's perspective; the plastic welds holding it together cannot systematically or cost-effectively be rejoined sufficient to return to a consumer for use. It was cheaper for them to simply replace the very few of these that died within the warranty period.

Sorry for the bad news.
