Failure modes on the Spice series:

• New battery design is larger then design used in calculator resulting in broken battery contact tabs.
• Battery corrosion affecting battery compartment.
• Corrosion affecting power flex ribbon.
• Compression of foam compression substrate causing loose IC connections
• Oxidation of foam compression substrate traces.
• Various case cracks from bad attempts to separate shell or dropping. Weak plastics.
• Display issues, especially on the floating IC version,
  

As far as wiring diagrams of the power supply, i direct you to this site, (Kees VanderSanden's excellent HP site) scroll down to find the spice series power supply schematic:
