HP 41C / issue to turn it on

[Dominique]

Hi,

Thanks a lot for your replies. My battery bay looks very clean but I cleaned it again. Still same syndrome: need to <-- + ON repeated 3 or 4 times to turn it on.

When turned on I tried some functions like ASN : I've a PACKING message displayed but endless (>30seconds at least before I decided to turn it off).

I also tried to reset it using <-- + ENTER + ON, but Memory lost message do not appears.

I'm currently shortening the battery contacts ... let's see.

My seller told me it worked very well before shipping. Maybe X-rays of airports are badly supported by such old calculators.
