Hi! Thanks to you, i fixed a similar problem with my fx-992s. In my case, the problem was found on the LCD side: some of ribbon cable pins has lost a contact with the LCD. I fixed it using the soldering iron. At first, i fold a piece of aluminium foil to make 4 layers. Then this foil have been applied above the ribbon cable upon the area, where it's connected with the LCD. Then i heat the foil using my soldering iron (150 C degrees), and following its tip i move some silicone card to apply some pressure. My fx-992s is working again! Thanks a lot from Ukraine!

Holy Crap! My TI 30Xa had something like this displayed .... didddiii instead of 888888. I was missing an attachment to my soldering iron so I carefully pressed the iron on a small wad of aluminum foil against the ribbon area. I carefully ran it across a few times. IT WORKED. I was about to chuck my 40 year old calculator before running across your video. I know it's only a $10-15 calculator, but it made my day. Thanks Dude!

Just found an old scientific calculator I had in 1998. Like yours the screen is missing segments. Though far more than yours.I have a heat gun so I'll try a similar approach before binning it. Thanks for making the video. It'll get a thumbs up from me. Maybe my daughter Jessica will end up using the same calculator in years to come.

Just tried this with the iFixit iOpener, first time I was too quick to apply pressure, second time i had something else apply pressure and i let it sit for 10 minutes, then applied some extra pressure with my fingers afterwards and VOILA! I could really feel the contact point being hotter after letting it sit with the iOpener on it. Thx for inspiring and doing the quick show and tell!

Thanks a lot sir for an idea! I have tried heating and pressing but did no good to me (i guess there isn't much adhesive left on my board), so i tried a different approach. I took a piece of soft material and placed it on the top of that problematic spot. It works like a charm!

What is the name of the tool you used? Is it a soldering iron, but you’re only using the hot air and not making any contact with the components? If I don’t have one, would a hairdryer work?
@SevenFortyOne Жыл бұрын
It's called a hot air rework station. A har dryer probably won't get hot enough. But a hot air tool you can buy at a hardware store or maybe harbor freight might...I'm not sure
