The "ON"-Key on my HP 48SX works only with very hard pressure.
I intend to open the calculator, to look what is wrong.
Does anyone know how to open it?

Thanks

Georg

Your problem just might be a very dirty contact within the keyboard layer. That is, I suspect that opening the calculator may not do much for it as there are no other keyboard problems to indicate any problems with the keyboard connector with the PCB.
