Help with HP 41C display
As part of a bundle I obtained for a HP 41CX, I found a disassembled HP 41C in the box. The calculator was in good condition, however, there were no screws and the plastic sheet to protect the back of the keyboard was missing. The I/O block was also badly corroded and there was a cracked post that was repaired with what looks like epoxy. I purchased one of Diego's Flex-PCB boards from The Calculator Store to repair the block. I also had some styrene sheets handy to cut to form to protect the keyboard. I asked Monte to send some extra screws when I ordered his CL board (thanks Monte). When I put everything together, I was greeted with a beep and a "MEMORY LOST" on the LCD. However, when the calculator is on idle/standby, the display is blank. I can see the numbers/characters on the LCD when a key is pressed. As far as I can tell, there are no other problems with the calculator (all keys work, no problems with the display elements). I looked again at the area around the broken post (picture attached). The traces appear to be intact and the solder joints appear fine. Is this a condition that is repairable or will I need to look for another calculator to convert to a CL? Thanks for your help.
